Dreamtime to Eden
Book 1: Coolangatta to Coffs Harbour
Book 2: Coffs Harbour to Newcastle
The walk of 1000 miles
and 1000 beaches
begins with a single step…
The journey of a thousand miles and a thousand beaches begins with a single step. And yours begins as you set off to walk the first great sweep of the New South Wales coast — every step, every beach, & every headland, one day at a time.
Experience the shimmering, long-sand beaches, incredible sunrises, and stunning vistas of the far north coast; the deep satisfaction of crossing the mouths of the great northern rivers; and the wilderness grandeur of Yuraygir National Park, where the coastline runs protected and wild for day after incredible day.
Inside, you will find everything required to plan and execute the trek: precise distances, route guides, transport logistics, accommodation options, food and water notes, and clear solutions for the "tricky bits." You will also find pointers to local history alongside essential, up-to-date resources for national parks and river crossings.
But what sets this guide apart is its narrative companion. Equal parts practical manual and evocative travelogue, it delivers lived-experience walking notes, deep reflections, and the inspiration needed to encourage you on your way.
It outlines a series of connected day walks to tackle at your own pace — as a complete coastal camino, a holiday series, individual day adventures, or simply as an excursion from your armchair.
Embark on this extraordinary coastal pilgrimage. Immerse yourself in the therapeutic rhythm of coastal walking, discover the rich natural and cultural heritage of NSW, and experience the beauty and wonder of the coast with reverence, curiosity, and joy.
