Take a step back in time with us to when dinosaurs roamed the earth.
The ancient rainforest in the Minyon Valley has a distinct ‘Jurassic
Park’ feel. From the forest floor, 100 metres below, the striking Minyon
Falls appear to fall from the sky. All this is on the doorstep of
Byron Bay.

Vision Walks offers you the opportunity to share the magic of this
place with an environmental scientist as your guide and companion. Join
us on a short or long guided walk to explore this breathtaking
spectacle.

On the way, keep watch for the mystical lyrebird or a pademelon – one
of our smallest macropods. Listen for the distinctive call of the
yellow-tailed black cockatoo. Catch a glimpse of frogs, skinks,
crayfish, tiny birds and lace monitors. These are just some of the
wildlife you might see. The secrets of the forest open up when you know
what to look for.
Explore this amazing ecosystem, see wildlife and learn about the rainforest.

Experience the wonder of Minyon Falls rising 100 metres above the
valley floor in the World Heritage Listed, Nightcap National Park.

Enjoy a swim at the waterfall and lunch on us to round out this unforgettable experience.

This is a moderate to hard walk with some hills and clambering over rocks. BYO water.

After the walk we’ll share afternoon tea or coffee and a Byron Bay Cookie.

Please let us know if you have any special dietary requirements when you book.

Our patented Night Vision Bushwalk is the only one of its kind in the world!

Imagine exploring the Australian rainforest at night, searching for
nocturnal wildlife. Instead of wielding a torch you’ll wear special
night vision goggles.

This is military grade technology that lets you see animals as they go about their business.

Because we don’t use bright lights we are less intrusive and that
means we can be more connected to what is going on all around us.

For many of our clients, seeing the forest in the dark is an enlightening experience.

After your walk enjoy a hot chocolate gazing up at the starry night. Heaven!

Nights with less moonlight are best for a Night Vision Bushwalk. On a
typical night we see five species. Our regular sightings include
possum, pademelon, bandicoot, tawny frogmouth, leaf tailed gecko,
fucsipes, melomys, micro bats and frogs.

We do our very best to give you a great experience, but of course, we
are dealing with nature so we cannot guarantee animal sightings.

Please let us know if you have any special dietary requirements when you book.

These walks are not recommended for people with epilepsy.

It is possible to see platypus
at any time of the day, but our best chance is just after dawn.

We pick you up from your Byron
Bay accommodation and drive to the special platypus area. From there we start
our 90- minute
easy walk along the creek looking for platypus.

Your guide will lead you at a
gentle pace, showing you what to look for and sharing insights about this
much-loved and quirky Australian animal.

We usually see one or two
platypus, loads of birds and sometimes even koalas. After
watching the pPlatypus
have their breakfast we relax with ours – a picnic by the creek – before
returning to Byron Bay.

We can’t guarantee platypus
sightings on this tour, but don’t worry. If we don’t see them,
we take you on another day, free.
