Hillcrest Mountain View Retreat

Waterfalls, Rainforest, Cascading Streams, Spectacular Views
See Them All in One Unforgettable Day with
Out'N'Back 4WD Excursions

Leave the well-worn "Tourist Trails", get back to nature and experience the pristine beauty of the Tweed Valley and its surrounding rainforests and ranges.

Out'N'Back Rainforest Tours offer a maximum of 4 people a tailored and personalised rainforest experience. No crowds, no tourist coaches, no souvenir shops ~ just you and nature. You will need to stay in the area for at least 2 days, preferably 3, to enjoy this unforgettable rainforest experience and still have time left over to explore the many things to see and do on the Tweed Coast and Tweed Hinterland.

For accommodation try Hillcrest Mountain View Retreat. Located in beautiful Crystal Creek with spectacular views to the rainforests of Mt Warning and Springbrook, cooling hilltop breezes and full air-conditioning, Hillcrest offers a choice of two bed and breakfast suites, one with luxury double spa, in a private guest wing of the main residence, or a completely secluded, fully self contained cottage set in it's own secluded garden with some of the most spectacular views to Mountains and rainforest in the Tweed hinterland. If you choose Hillcrest Cottage you can enjoy a private BBQ on your verandah whilst looking directly at the Springbrook rainforests.

For a closer look at the best of the World Heritage listed parks and rainforests of North NSW, straight after your full country-style breakfast, the comfortable, air-conditioned, Out'N'Back 4WD vehicle will collect you from Hillcrest for a full day tour. Your expert guide, Owen, will take you off the beaten track and far from the tourist masses for a truly amazing rainforest experience.

"that was the most spectacular day out we've ever had. The rainforest was magnificent and we saw so much wildlife. Owen took us along small winding roads you'd never find by yourself. A fantastic day in the rainforest before being delivered safely back for a swim in the pool at Hillcrest" Martin & Susie Pavey, UK

This very full day starts with a visit to Australia's most spectacular Subtropical Rainforest, where you can bask in the shadow of 3000 year old Antarctic Beech Trees. Enjoy the peace and quiet of the forest where wallabies, colourful birds and fascinating reptiles abound.

Depending on the weather, your tour takes you higher and higher until you break out of the rainforest canopy at Pinnacle and Blackbutt Lookouts and enjoy views over the Mt Warning caldera ~ the second largest in the world. Included in both rainforest tours is a stop for morning tea and a traditional Aussie barbeque lunch.

After seeing the best that the Border Ranges National Park has to offer, Owen from Out'N'Back rainforest tours will deliver you safely back to Hillcrest at the end of the day, where you may choose to indulge in a luxury spa bath before dinner and a restful nights sleep.

As this tour is a full day with an early start and late finish, plan to spend at least 2 days at Hillcrest Mountain View Retreat so you can spend some time relaxing by the large solar heated, salt-water pool.
