Walcha, Administrative division in New South Wales, Australia.
The administrative region of Walcha encompasses extensive agricultural lands with over 937,000 sheep and 85,500 cattle across New England Tablelands.
Hamilton Collins Sempill initiated European settlement in 1832 by establishing the Wolka run, leading to the official proclamation as a town in 1878.
The Dhanggati People maintained connections to this land for 6000 years before European arrival, particularly around the Apsley Falls region.
The council office at 2W Hamilton Street provides administrative services, with 24-hour phone support available at 6774-2500 for resident assistance.
Walcha established Australia's first telecentre in 1992, known as the Walcha Telecottage, offering employment training and internet access to local residents.
