Description
Pack your boots and a sense of adventure for a 3 day hiking experience through Byron Bay and the spectacular Nightcap National Park. You'll explore 32km of iconic walks, kicking off with a journey around Cape Byron with local Arakwal woman Aunty Delta, who shares her stories and bush tucker knowledge.
Day one: Start with a 5km walk around Walgun (Cape Byron), then trek the 5km Blue Fig Trail through subtropical rainforest, creeks and waterfalls. Settle into eco cottages for the night and tuck into a dinner celebrating local produce.
Day two: After breakfast, tackle the 19km Nightcap Historic Track from Mount Nardi, following ancient Widjabul paths and the old postman's route, taking in volcanic vents and mountain views. For an easier option, the 5km Boggy Creek Walk winds from Rummery Park to Minyon Falls and back along the escarpment. Enjoy another relaxing evening with a locally sourced dinner.
Day three: Early breakfast, pack up, then head for an 8km rainforest hike to Minyon Grass. Descend to the base of Minyon Falls - the tallest in the hinterland - before climbing through rainforest to your finish. Wrap up your epic legs with a ride back to Byron Bay or the airport. There's also a walk-only option for those who want to BYO accommodation and food. Please note: This experience is currently suspended due to flood damage.
