Experience nature in Lismore
Situated in the subtropical valleys south of Mt Warning, Lismore is surrounded by picturesque mountains and lush rainforest. It's famous for its World Heritage-listed rainforests and national parks.
Lismore Area
To the south of Nightcap National Park, Lismore and the surrounding area is a hidden jewel between the rainforest and the sea, offering a relaxed blend of city convenience and country charm.
Also known as the Rainbow Region, covering towns such as Nimbin, Casino and Evans Head, it contains nearly one third of NSW’s forest reserve, where you can explore heritage-listed rainforests and national parks. Stay in self-contained cottages or guesthouses, or camp out under the stars.
