This day trip takes in a few of my favourite roads that I know in the Tweed Valley area. The trip will pass some beautiful mountain scenery, gorgeous rain forests using many of the back roads.
We will have a short stop in Nimbin and about an hour and a half at The Channon Markets for lunch, then on to UKI and maybe a short visit to the Wollumbin Gourmet Mushroom Farm (yes my mushrooms setup) and then finishing with dinner at the Tumbulgum Tavern.
Four Wheel Drive is not expected to be used and it will be about 40% dirt roads and 60% bitumen.
I am intending to be at the Tumbulgum Tavern before sunset to hopefully view the sunset over the river before finishing with dinner and a drink.

I think I'll be a starter again.
Beautiful country down that way!

I'll be back in Brisbane by Sunday, so I should be able to make this trip too. Certainly sounds like a very scenic trip.

[Dave]

It's a long story, but I'm stuck just south of Townsville for a few more days, and will unfortunately miss out on this trip. Sorry about that.

[GridPack]

Sounds like Dave turned the wrong way when leaving the gemfields!
I'll be there Sunday morning.
Cheers,
Don
