TERANIA CREEK NEW VISITOR EXPERIENCE
Visitors can now enjoy a new experience at Terania Creek Picnic Area, through a highly visible and engaging display of art sculptures that pay tribute to the people that saved it.

Forty years ago, a group of local and indigenous people made national history when they successfully stopped the bulldozing of one of Australia’s most beautiful ancient forests, the site of Protestors Falls, in Northern NSW.

Thanks to the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service for constructing a memorial dedicated to the people responsible for the preservation of this significant forest for generations to come. 
There are ten sculptures that tell the story of this brave and determined group with photographic images and stories alongside each sculpture. 

Visit Lismore had the pleasure of touring the site this week with the team from National Parks. Here we share how truly special the Lismore region is, and how lucky we are to share this unique area with you.
