Coffs Coast Hinterland - National Parks around the Waterfall Way.
May 23 - May 31
A one week day-packing adventure exploring easy/medium walks in Hat Head National Park, Dorrigo NP, Barrington Tops NP and Oxley Rivers NP.
There are many short to medium walks to choose from in these four Parks and I have chosen a variety of mostly easy daypack walks ranging from 1hr (2kms) to 8hrs (16kms). All are easy to access and on well formed walking tracks that include great features such as rainforest, waterfalls, great views over mountains and deep gorges, suspension bridges, etc..
I have booked some accommodation in Camden Haven, Dorrigo, Walcha and Gloucester and the choice is yours as to where you’d like to stay in these towns….for example camping, cabins, or hotel/motels. If you’d like to know more, I have a detailed itenary which covers the dates, towns, accomodation, the National Parks we’ll be visiting and the walks we’ll be doing.
