Touring Options

Green Outback

The tour is a journey along the Pacific Coastline, but with a chance to experience a few days in what we call the Green Outback. By this we mean the Great Escarpment, a gigantic green wall where the land plunges down gorges and ravines to the coastal plains. Deep rainforest canyons and solitary wilderness give an idea of an Australia as it was known by the indigenous people before the arrival of European and other cultures.
The National Parks we explore are listed as World Heritage due to their uniqueness and high conservation significance. We guide our clients on easy day walks, mostly of 2 to 4 hours, sometimes with an option to extend the walk to 6 hours.
Small groups of 4 to 8 participants, selected accommodation and most meals included

Dorrigo NP day walks

We offer a choice of 3 one-day walks in Dorrigo NP, providing transport, lunch pack, and expert guidance.
#1 Gleniffer Gorge: Walking upstream in and along the boulder strewn Never Never Creek is particularly pleasant on a hot summer’s day. We pass numerous picturesque pools set amongst bangalow palms and lowland rainforest, offering opportunities for a refreshing swim. The walk is easy and is offered over the warmer months when creek levels are low.
#2 Blackbutt Track & Cedar Falls: Walking in eucalypt and warm temperate rainforest, we pass several waterfalls. The walk is medium and involves one short steep climb.
#3 Killlungoondie Plains & Lanes Lookout: This walk leads us into a remote part of Dorrigo NP, through native grass land, a rarity in Australia after 200 years of grazing. Entering the mystical cool temperate rainforest with its Antarctic beaches is like entering another world. The walk is easy to medium.
