IN THE HEART OF THE TWEED CALDERA and only 10 minutes drive from the Red Rattlers.
On the east coast of Australia in the Northern Rivers of New South Wales lies the deepest caldera in the Southern Hemisphere. At the focal point of the caldera and still dominating the region is the eroded core of the once mighty Tweed volcano. Known as Wollumbin or ‘cloud catcher’ by the Bundjalung people, it was named Mt Warning by Captain James Cook in 1770, to warn mariners of the treacherous coastline between Fingal Head and Point Danger.
Nestled in the caldera below, set on 150 acres of farmland with the Pacific Ocean to the east and the Gondwana Rainforest to the west, lies the family run distillery where Husk Distillers practice their craft.
From the HUSK website:
We are farmers first, distillers second.
This means we make rum from the finest quality, freshly crushed cane juice grown on our farm, an approach known as the French-style or Rhum Agricole.
When you taste our rum, you will discover a body and character unlike traditional molasses rums. Take Pure Cane, our unaged agricole and our most pure expression. This sparkling, crystal clear liquid exhibits an unparalleled freshness with herbal and floral aromas, light and fruity with sweet sugar cane and citrus notes and a well-balanced, pastrie finish – a world away from many one-dimensional, almost vodka-like molasses-based white rums.

Sightseeing
A great place to visit and it is free, which is rare these days. Easy to spend an hour or so there, plus there is a lovely cafe there. The views over the river are absolutely beautiful.

Art Gallery
A popular spot with both locals and visitors, the Tweed Valley Art Gallery is a modern, state-of-the-art structure situated amidst lush farmland on the outskirts of Murwillumbah. At any one time it features several exhibitions, highlighting the work of local, Australian and international artists. On the day that I visited, there was also an impressive exhibition in the gallery's foyer featuring the work of talented children from the local schools.

An absolute must visit. It is an easy walk for most, although there are stairs if you do the full loop. If you take the path to the left at the start, you will go down the stairs (instead of up) so it is much easier. For anyone who can't manage stairs, just keep to the right at the fork and go check out the waterfall, and then return along the same path.

Take a drive to the base of Mt. Warning. We don't recommend a walk up the mountain unless you are super fit! It is hard and long and only suitable for experienced hikers.
It is still very pretty at the bottom and worth a visit.

Although Murwillumbah is situated inland, it's just a short drive from the ocean, and Kingscliff, Cabarita Beach, Hastings Point and Pottsville Beach are just a few of the spectacular beaches in the area. Situated amongst breathtaking natural scenery and with an infectiously chilled-out vibe, these delightful hamlets offer a dramatic contrast to the heavy commercialism of the Gold Coast, further north. However, while they maintain the laid-back ambiance of beach resorts of yore, they offer a wide range of accommodation, dining and shopping options which will please the most discerning visitor as well as the more budget conscious.
