Guyra, Administrative division in New South Wales, Australia

Guyra stands at 1,330 meters above sea level on a volcanic uplift of the Northern Tablelands between Armidale and Glen Innes.

European settlement began in 1835 when Alexander Campbell established Guyra Station, followed by the construction of the Great Northern Railway in 1884.

The name Guyra originates from the Gamilaraay language of the original Indigenous inhabitants, referring to either a white cockatoo or a fishing place.

The region supports multiple industries including wool production, beef cattle farming, potato cultivation, and a large greenhouse facility producing 12 million kilograms of tomatoes annually.

The area experiences 42 nights below freezing each year and maintains the distinction of being one of the highest townships in Australia.

Location: Armidale Regional Council
