Forget the shopping centre. In the Blue Mountains, the best finds are discovered behind heritage shopfronts, down leafy laneways and inside village arcades.

Think artisan jewellery, statement hats, slow fashion, original art, fair-trade treasures, handmade skincare and beautiful things you won’t find everywhere else.

Our spring edition takes you boutique shopping from village to village across the Mountains. Pick up a copy or read online via the link in bio.

The weekend is almost here, which means plenty of time to meander over the Mountains and make a day of Lithgow.

Explore the towering ruins of the Blast Furnace, wander the heritage streets, then browse slow fashion at The Huntress xx, natural fibres at The Shepherd's Choice - Wool Fibre, Sheep & Shearing and contemporary art at GANG GANG Gallery. When hunger strikes, settle in for a Mediterranean-inspired feast at Moons Restaurant & Bar.

There’s much more to Lithgow than its industrial past. Discover it in our spring edition (🔗 in bio).

What’s the secret to the perfect wildlife photograph? Patience, respect and letting the animal be itself.

Lithgow photographer Jeremy Murray captured the juvenile eastern grey kangaroo among spring flowers featured on our spring cover.

From wombats and wallabies to misty pagodas and hidden valleys, Jeremy finds endless inspiration close to home.

Meet the man behind the cover on Page 3 of our spring edition (🔗in bio).
