Explore with Bellingen Nature Tours
Deep immersion in the purest and most ancient of places.
With the greatest respect to the Gumbaynggirr people and their timeless country.
Your guide to Gondwana
Please join me for a deeply immersive experience across a range of private conservation playgrounds from the steamy lowland subtropical rainforests on the floor of the Bellinger Valley to the cool (and occasionally snowy) highest peaks atop the Great Escarpment at the edge of the Dorrigo Plateau.
Having lived, played and worked my entire career as an ecologist in the forests, rivers, wetlands and mountains of the North Coast of NSW, I have developed an intimate familiarity with what are some of the most ancient of ecosystems on the planet - literally windows back to the time of the dinosaurs and largely unchanged across many tens of millions of years.
I have the deepest of respect for the Gumbaynggirr custodians and these most remarkable of places.
I look forward to sharing some experiences of Gondwana with you,
Mark Graham
