Travel - Lismore, NSW

Picture
Lismore, NSW
The birthplace of Australian eco-tourism, Lismore is also the commercial centre of the north east of NSW and the home of Southern Cross University. However, for more than 6000 years before white settlement of the area, the original Bundjalung people had their own travel routes in the region, usually along the rivers. 
Lismore is a relaxed and vibrant city located in the heart of the Northern Rivers, just 40 kilometres inland from Byron Bay. Historic villages blend traditional rural living with an eclectic, cosmopolitan culture.  Lismore is the commercial and cultural hub of the Northern Rivers where you’ll discover an abundance of arts and crafts, live music, world heritage listed national parks,  lush rainforests and plenty of unique places to stay.

Northern Rivers, NSW
It’s a green and pleasant land here, but there’s so much more to the Northern Rivers than its tantalisingly lush landscapes. There’s that big swathe of coastline, for starters, where you’ll be drawn in by world-famous beachfront towns like Byron Bay, Lennox Head and Ballina. There’s an equally big collection of tastemakers creating brilliant food, drink and produce, with both sand and soil underfoot.
