Palm Valley Currenbah walking track is a 0.7km, grade 1 Circuit hike located in the Cape Byron State Conservation Area, NSW. The hike should take approximately 15mins to complete.
Summary
Palm Valley Currenbah walking track starts at Palm Valley carpark next to The Pass Café. It’s a cool escape from the bustle of Byron Bay, winding its way through shaded palm rainforest with picnic and barbecue facilities at either end.
