Last Thursday afternoon students escaped the lively streets of Byron Bay to enjoy some peace, quiet and nature at the beautiful Killen’s Falls.

Students swam beneath the main fall

Killen Falls is approximately 30-minutes’ drive southwest of Byron Bay, inland from Lennox Head. Rueben from the Byron Bay Travel Company organised transportation for our students and guided the afternoon tour.

It was a short hike through nature down to the falls

It was a tranquil hike through bushland to the main fall.

Happy students at the swimming hole

Students trekked along river stones on the stream’s edge until they arrived at the swimming hole. They could also access the cave behind Killen’s falls.

Marveling at the falls

Students swam beneath the beautiful falls. The water temperature was cool but quickly become more bearable and enjoyable. The water source that creates the waterfall flows out of Emigrant Creek.

An amazing afternoon together

Snacks and drinks were provided, and our students enjoyed a scenic picnic by the falls. Our special activities in partnership with the Byron Bay Travel Company are extremely popular with students.
