Muswellbrook Shire Council
Muswellbrook Shire Council, centrally located in the Upper Hunter Valley, with two larger towns and a number of outlying communities, offers a wealth of cultural, recreational, educational and community facilities. As the main center for New South Wales’ power generation and a major center for coal mining the Shire is currently undergoing change and diversifying to include agriculture, viticulture, education, equine and renewable resources.
