How the Tweed Tourism describes the route:
 
Take to the Tweed tracks of the Northern Rivers Rail Trail to breathe in nature, explore country towns and immerse in the richness of our valley life. 

Along our 24km trail you’ll pass by working farms, be embraced by lush rainforest, cross over wide bridges and navigate original train tunnels. 

Stop and explore along the way, and plan your trail getaway to spend time in galleries and meet local artists, dine out in award-winning restaurants and learn more about the history and culture of the Tweed.
