Nimbin's Rainbow Walk

Updated: Oct 24



Lismore City Council is pleased the construction of the Nimbin Rainbow Walk is underway, with construction of the track expected to be completed in the middle of the year, followed by final art installations, landscaping and wayfinding signage, ready for opening to the public in the second half of 2024.


The Nimbin Rainbow Walk is an exciting project to construct a 750m long track, providing the community of Nimbin and its visitors with a safe, fun and active way to enjoy the beauty of the natural environment, as well as connect with cultural and artistic expressions.


The project includes formed pathways, boardwalks and bridges, providing access to natural areas and landscape views, interpretive and wayfinding signage, local artworks, park furniture and native plantings, including the addition of 5,800 new plantings, providing additional shade and natural beauty to the area, connecting Nimbin’s recreation precinct and Aquarius Way to the vibrant village.


Construction is underway, along with the installation of one of six installations by local artists, with the remainder being erected throughout the track construction phase. The artwork installations were chosen through an expression of interest process, to provide a wonderful opportunity for the community and visitors to experience local art while exploring the parklands and natural environment. Work is also progressing by chosen production designer, Ross Wallace, on the design of the visual material and signage on and off the track.


Council will post regular updates as the project progresses and highlight any information that may be relevant to you as a community member or local business.

Lismore City Council wishes to thank the Nimbin Community Centre, Nimbin Chamber of Commerce and private landowners for making this project possible, delivering an attraction that will be enjoyed for many years to come, as well as providing benefits and opportunities for experiences and businesses in Nimbin.
