This beautiful property has been nurtured by my parents since 1983. As a boy I helped my parents remove large amounts of lantana weeds by hand. Other invasive weeds have been controlled, allowing the native species time and space to regenerate themselves into the perfect example of native Australian sclerophyll forest that you see today. My parents have since retired and I'm now honored to have the opportunity to share this remarkable environment with you.This campsite is an elevated & level camp, overlooking the beautiful Australian bush. Positioned on a sandstone ridge, facing north east, you'll feel at peace among well established eucalyptus & sclerophyll forest.
The camp site is about 10 meters-square. It's privately secluded from the main public road, but close enough to hear the occasional vehicle. The sandy soils here challenge the under story with low fertility and often dry conditions. Common wildlife include echidna, goanna, wallabies, various insects, and a wide variety of bird-life.
You'll need to be self-contained with your own camping toilet/shower and water. Please only use the designated stone fire-pit. Dogs on leashes & horses are welcome.
There is ample opportunity here for self-guided bush walking & exploring the amazing natural environment.
Be aware, due to the sloping land & dense trees, trailers cannot be turned around once inside the property. Please un/load trailers outside, opposite the driveway entrance, on the side of the main public Dyraaba Road.
The property is 50 hectares fenced on all sides & you are free to roam on foot or horseback throughout. Unfortunately motorized vehicles including motorcycles, are not permitted to drive on this property.
On a clear day, in the distant horizon you can spot Wollumbin Mountain (AKA 'Mount Warning') which is also the most prominent mountain visible from Byron Bay, & throughout Bundjalung country.
Dyraaba is part of the traditional lands of the GULI-BUL tribal area, within the greater Bundjalung Nation.
This HipCamp site is about 100km or 1.5hr drive inland from Byron Bay, NSW.
