One Week from Sydney to Brisbane

Breathe in the fresh air of the ocean and the rainforest on this week-long journey from Sydney to Brisbane. On this trip, you’ll take a walk in Crowdy Bay National Park, visit the Koala Hospital in Port Macquarie, enjoy a classic Aussie barbeque in Red Rock and go stand-up paddleboarding with the Gumbaynggir community. Learn about local Aboriginal culture, soak up a free day and night in every surfer’s favourite spot (Byron Bay, of course) and fit in as many swims and sunsets as you can. Hike to the Natural Bridge rock arch in Springbrook National Park on your way to Lamington National Park, where you’ll be surrounded by natural rainforest in your excellent lodge accommodation. End it all in Brisbane, where you can choose to extend your adventure and hit the city!

Activities
  • Crowdy Bay National Park - Mermaid Lookout Track
  • Port Macquarie - Koala Hospital guided tour
  • Red Rock - Wajaana Yaam Stand Up Paddleboarding
  • Springbrook National Park - Natural Bridge Circuit Walk
  • Byron Bay - The Farm visit
Highlights
  • Support the local Gumbaynggirr community with stand-up paddleboarding in Coffs Harbour. Gliding along the river, you’ll take in the gorgeous natural scenery with an Aboriginally owned social enterprise focusing on preserving culture and language.
  • Visit the Koala Conservation Hospital in Port Macquarie to meet the volunteers and learn how they provide care and treatment for koalas in need of rehabilitation.
  • Soak up a full free day in iconic Byron Bay – why not hit the waves with an optional surfing lesson, chill out on the beach or explore the fun cafes and bars (don’t forget to pick an epic sunset spot!).
  • Pick up some breakfast at The Farm – this cool initiative houses a collection of micro-businesses on a working farm, focusing on growing organic food as well as feeding and educating the local community.
  • Breathe in the fresh air and natural landscapes at Lamington National Park – home to lush rainforest, waterfalls, creeks and mountains. Take a hike along the way and spend the night in a lodge in the middle of the forest.
About Intrepid Travel
Intrepid Travel logo

We've been taking travellers around the globe and connecting people from all walks of life since 1989.

That's over 30 years of adventures, visiting new places and old friends, and countless, unforgettable moments. More than 30 years of changing the way people see the world on small group trips with like-minded explorers and a local leader to show you around.

But to us, it's about more than just seeing the world, it's about experiencing it. It's about feeling its pulse and the shared rhythms of Intrepid people all over the world. To be Intrepid is far more than a lust for travel, we're an antidote to loneliness. We connect people to the heartbeat of adventure and the soul of the planet.
