Kids love undertaking the Kids Quest in the Crystal Castle gardens Photos: Tourism New South Wales There’s plenty to explore, from a range of gardens decorated with Buddhist and Hindu statues, to beautiful trails such as the Buddha walk, shaded by stands of bamboo, to a sacred labyrinth that recreates the design of the labyrinth at Chartres Cathedral. There are, of course, plenty of crystals to admire, including Australia’s heaviest crystal (a four-tonne pink rose quartz) and its largest — two 3.5m amethyst geodes. “What we’ve tried to do is create a place that enriches the spirit, that lets people step off the merry-go-round of their busy lives,” King says. “A lot of people enjoy the peaceful side, the contemplation, but we also have a Kids Quest for the children, that lets them explore the entire area to fi nd the answers to 20 questions.” The Crystal Castle is one place to contemplate the beauty of nature, another is Mount Warning, the extinct volcano whose silhouette dominates the horizon. The mountain is sacred to the local Bundjalung people, who call it Wollumbin, and they ask visitors not to climb it. Instead, try one of the easy paths through the area’s dense rainforest. A good option is the Lyrebird Walking Track, a gentle stroll through 200m of palm forest that fi lters the light into soft shades of green. Occasionally, the call of a lyrebird will punctuate the forest sounds. Again, the comforts of civilisation are close at hand: from here it’s just a short drive to the charming Mavis’ Kitchen. This restaurant is set in an airy old Queenslander home, where mouth-watering meals are made with organic produce from the restaurant’s own garden. WHAT WE’VE TRIED TO DO IS CREATE A PLACE THAT ENRICHES THE SPIRIT THAT LETS PEOPLE STEP OFF THE MERRY-GO-ROUND OF THEIR BUSY LIVES “We’re all about connecting food to the garden: what we grow, we pick and we use,” says owner Charlie Ebell, who named the restaurant after his mum. “We want to encourage people to connect with the strength and beauty of sustainability.” near Protestors Falls HUB BYRON BAY HINTERLAND JANUARY <strong>2010</strong> 53
