Be impressed by the outstanding Gondwana Rainforests of Australia (UNESCO listed).
Hike through ancient forests and take memorable photos at a breathtaking lookout. Re-connect to nature as you swim at a spectacular waterfall (weather permitting). Be pleased with an organic vegan dinner, then as night falls, be amazed by the glow-worm magic as you listen to a live instrument play.
Head back to Byron rejuvenated after an adventure filled with conscious talks and inspirational ideas.
* The itinerary is subject to change without notice according to park closures, weather conditions, and moon position.
Eg: When the moon is too bright (at the time of the experience) it affects glow-worm visibility at the National Park. The tour is, therefore, run at a different location where the visibility is better. All itineraries visit a pristine waterfall, an epic lookout, and, a magical glowworm location.
* Driving time is around 1 hour and 15min each way with stops along the way in.
