Scone, in the Upper Hunter Shire, has a small but innovative population and is perhaps best known as the "horse capital of Australia".

Its first inhabitants were Wonnarua & Gamilaroi Aboriginal Peoples.

Scone 's reputation as a world-renowned horse breeding locale makes it home to dozens of studs and internationally recolonised thoroughbred breeders. Its rich history in horse breeding is celebrated with the annual Scone Horse Festival held during May.

An emerging popular tourist destination, its wine industry it expanding and its proximity to Sydney makes it an ideal weekend getaway.
