Be amazed at the natural beauty of thousands of Glow Worms in the tunnel. GO for an evening ride on high-end E-bikes to the tunnel though the native rainforest spotting nocturnal animals along the way. Dismount the E-Bikes and walk through the tunnel using only the natural light of the Glow Worms for guidance. Learn about the unique characteristics of the Glow Worms, micro bats and other wildlife in the area. Find out what makes the region so special and why its protection is vital.
Pick-up is via shuttle bus from your accommodation, then a 25 minutes drive north of Byron Bay to Burringbar where we start the evening adventure. Your bike setup is personalised and E-bike operating instructions given before departing along the trail at dusk. The E-bikes come with a mounted bike light providing ample light for the night ride.
The ride to the Burringbar Range tunnel is 5 kilometres and passes through lush hinterland and native temperate rainforest. Watch out for native nocturnal wildlife along the way along the sides of the trail. Once the tunnel is reached, it's lights out during the walk through the tunnel using just the mesmerising lights of thousands of Glow Worms for guidance.
Walk the whole 520m to the other end of the tunnel and the local guide explains the life of a Glow Worm, micro bats that inhabit the tunnel along with the tunnel's interesting rail history.
Return is back through the tunnel back to embark on the gentle downhill run before loading up and returning back to riders' accommodation. The total tour takes 3 hours.
