Burringbar Range Tunnel
A nice easy walk along the old abandoned Murwillumbah to Casino railway line (1894 to 2004) from Stokers Siding to the biggest tunnel (524m) on that line, with plenty of glow worms and some micro bats.
This section of the track looks now to be contained within the Northern Rivers Rail Trail - Tweed Section (2023) and no longer restricted.

MacKenzie Falls Lookout Walk
The Bluff Lookout provides sweeping views of MacKenzie Falls and the MacKenzie River from high above the gorge. The lookout provides the only opportunity to capture the multiple cascades of the MacKenzie River as it flows through the gorge, including a wonderful view of MacKenzie Falls. If you can’t make it to the base of the falls, this is the best alternative.
Bluff Lookout is accessed via a gently undulating, sealed walking track that wanders through a sheltered woodland. It is suitable for wheelchairs.
For the most spectacular view approach the viewing platform from the right-hand fork of the track.

MacKenzie Falls Walk
Broken Falls Lookout provides a sweeping view of the MacKenzie River as it cascades over Broken Falls. The cantilevered lookout sits on the edge of the gorge.
The lookout is accessed via a short, sealed walking track from MacKenzie Falls Carpark. The initial section is steep, but the track and lookout are suitable for wheelchairs.
To continue to the base of MacKenzie Falls, return to the main track intersection and continue along the signposted track past Cranages Lookout. Take care as this walk has many steps and is steep, slippery and strenuous in sections. Return the same route.
Swimming is not permitted at the base of the falls.

Paperbark Forest Boardwalk
*** The Paperbark Forest Walk is closed. Reedy Creek Reserve is a small conservation area which unfortunately become overwhelmed by visitors, to the point where the walk, the forest and wetlands were being damaged. Literally thousands of people were visiting the site, ignoring the signage and causing the walk, the road and car park to become a foot and vehicle traffic jam. Please do no attempt to access the boardwalk or enter the reserve. ***
This short trail is an exciting walk for all the family, with stepping stones, boardwalks and water crossings as you meander through a magnificent and picturesque Paperbark Forest.

Mt. Aso (Eboushidake and Kishimadake) + 阿蘇山烏帽子岳杵島岳 (Aso-Kuju National Park, Kumamoto Prefecture)
One of the 100 famous mountains in Japan, Mt. Aso is truly epic. Being one of Japan's most active volcanoes, it is to be feared as it constantly plumes sulfuric gas that can be deadly. But thanks to its volcanic activity, Mt. Aso has scenery unlike anywhere else in Japan except maybe Mt. Kuju. Filled with lushious green fields, black volcanic deserts and boiling lakes. Mt. Aso is worth the trip.
Some would describe this hike as A.S.O too much volcano or even danger volcano.
