Ocean to Mountain (Coffs Harbour-Dorrigo)

Coffs Harbour Marina
The walk over Big Muttonbird Island on the Northern Breakwall to the Harbour will test your fitness but you'll be rewarded with spectacular views of the Harbour, ocean and offshore islands. Whales come right up to the harbour entrance here too less than 200m from the island. The Marina provides tourist shops, cafes and fish co-op.

Beacon Hill lookout
Views overlook the Harbour. Great views of the Solitary Islands and Coffs Harbour airport

Boambee Headland Lookout
Views of Coffs Harbour to the North and Sawtell Beach & Headland to the South. Overlooks Boambee Creek's entrance to the sea

Sawtell Headland Lookout
Overlooks Bonville Creek's entrance to the sea. Good Whale watching area, views to the North & South along the Coast. Smokey Cape can be seen on the horizon to the South (looks like an Island way out wide, but is actually connected to the coastline.

The beginning of one of Australia's top 5 touring roads (rated by several bike and Tourism editors)

Bellingen

Thora Store
There is fuel available here. This is the beginning of the climb up the mountain - all 14klms of it.
See if you can count just how many bends and corners there are :)

1st Waterfall
There's a carpark here and the water can be easily accessed. Picnic shelter also. Spectacular views of the valley below stretching right back to the ocean in the distance.
The road across the face is One lane with a 'Giveway' to climbing traffic. WARNING: If after heavy rain in the area the Falls can go right across the road.

2nd Waterfall
There is a one lane bridge across the face of this fall and a 'Giveway' sign to traffic going up.

Skywalk turnoff
Turn right here and do the Skywalk. its a scenis walk out above the treetops over the edge of the mountain. It isn't for the feint-hearted though.

Dorrigo
Turn right at the oblisk and go to
'Juans cafe' (the Worlds smallest motorcycle Museum) 100m on the left, or stop at the Dorrigo Hotel on left of the intersection for some liquid refreshment or a meal.
