Why it's worth checking out
Behind the Bay is based on Johnston Lane at Ewingsdale, in the lush hinterland just behind Byron Bay. A much-loved walking experience, it's earned a flawless reputation — offering guided walks that take in the beautiful Byron hinterland scenery, the kind of memorable, well-run outdoor experience that draws enthusiastic praise from everyone who joins.
The appeal is that combination of a beautiful natural setting and a quality guided experience, immersing you in the gorgeous Byron Bay hinterland on foot, ideal for nature lovers, walkers and anyone after a memorable, scenic outing away from the crowds. The flawless feedback speaks to an experience that genuinely delights, with the lovely hinterland landscape as the backdrop.

Walk times, durations, bookings, what to bring, meeting points and pricing all vary, and as an outdoor walking experience it pays to come prepared for the conditions, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly ahead before you go — particularly to confirm availability and what's involved for your visit near Byron Bay.
