The Tweed

Travel Guide

Our local hood .... early morning walks with a very eager schnauzer
Another early morning view to Mt Warning. It was a hard climb, Mt Warning, but worth it. #weekendgetaway #hiking
Fingal Head, just South of the Qld border in NSW, is a great place to watch sunrise, sunset and stargaze. It can all be done with the lighthouse in mind. Fun nights can also be had with light painting whilst waiting to see if the stars are optimal. Whatever you do at Fingal Head, you'll come away having enjoyed yourself.
Mt Warning from the air. It pays to have friends who can get you to high places. #captaincook #mtwarning #aerialshot #australia #blue
Fancy a good long hike with some camping thrown in? Head towards the Quennsland- NSW Border where if you reach the summit of Mt Warning early enough, you'll be rewarded with a majestic sunrise off the Eastern coast of Australia. The ever changing light and conditions makes it a wonderland. Get out and enjoy this beautiful world we live in. Oh, and take your rubbish home #hiking
