Day trips in Far North NSW or Gold Coast region??

Ay Savvas,

Some nice drives, some nice views out the back of Murwillumbah towards Kyogle mate. Some National Park and some forestry country. Picturesque, rainforest, mountainous. Also through the back of the Lamington area is nice.

Savvas,

Go and climb Mt Warning (on foot).

Border Ranges National Park is on the Kyogle Rd.... turn off to the right at Lillian Rock for the eastern entry... Blackbutts Lookout and The Pinnacle lookout have sensational views ... Pinnacle being the better, Sheepstation Creek has a great BBQ area, the driving is relaxed and easy thru here... there is a western section mentioned in a lot of 4X4 books called Lyndesay View, don't bother it has been closed for many many years :-(
A decent map will show all the national parks in this area, many of which have 4 wheel drive tracks!
For a bit of fun, Crystalvale 4X4 park gives plenty of thrills for $20 per car per day.. they're at Crystal Creek behind Murwillumbah, beware if it's been raining though, it's mostly hill climbs and it gets way muddy there!!!
Have a good holiday!!!!

Mebbin Nat Park is another one (Behind Mt Warning) . . . some good driving in there . . . nothing real hard though.

Mt Warning with a 6yo . . . yep . . . no great dramas. The last section up the chains is a tad tough . . . but achievable.

Hi Savvas.
There are some good spots west of Mullumbimby. Get in before all the forests are transferred to national parks. Once this happens all motor vehicle access will be stopped!!

If your going to do the Mount Warning thing, leave your good stuff at home. Don't take any valuables with you as you will not need them climbing. I'm saying this as the local ferals hide in the bush near the car park, wait for you to leave knowing your going to be gone for hours and help themselves to your hard earned goodies. By the time you get back the stuff's is already sold in town. Don't let this be a downer the climb and view is awsome.

Have a good holiday.
