Trail tips

Start early

Head out by 9 am to make the most of the day. Some stops have limited hours and the morning light through the valley is something else.

Bring a cooler

You'll want to pick up cheese, produce, and maybe a bottle from Husk. A small cooler bag keeps everything fresh for the drive home.

Lunch at Pasta'bah

Time your Murwillumbah stops around lunch. Pasta'bah is small and popular — arrive by 11:30 to grab a table. The gnocchi is legendary.
