Byron Hinterland Paddock to Plate

Once you all clambered aboard the kiff van, cruise through rolling hinterland hills towards an elevated coffee plantation. Learn how this all-Aussie producer grows and roasts ethical, sustainable beans for discerning domestic consumers. Savour one of Australia’s only authentic crop-to-cup coffee experiences.

With caffeine coursing through the veins head to a quaint hinterland hamlet for a casual village tour. Peruse a slew of chic boutiques stocking everything from antiques to homewares and vintage apparel.

All that shopping would’ve worked up an appetite. Handily, this picturesque hinterland village happens to host one of the Northern River’s best farm-to-table establishments. What this venue can’t grow on-site, it sources from top-quality local suppliers to guarantee utmost freshness. Devour a delicious deli-style lunch—think house-smoked pastrami sandwiches, leafy green salads, and decadent French-style pastries.

With a well-lined stomach, venture towards a renowned Byron gin distillery or brewery (depending on availability).

Nestled in a recently rejuvenated rainforest, the distillery infuses home-grown botanicals into its award-winning range. Meander the lush re-forested property (keep an eye out for koalas) as you hear their inspiring sustainability story. Naturally, indulge in a cheeky tasting session to sip the good stuff at the source.
