This crescent-shaped oasis in the state of New South Wales has just 375 inhabitants, many of whom are descendants of early settlers, just 11 kilometers long and 2.8 kilometers wide. There is only one street in the unique village of Lord Howe. No electrical connections, no network for tall buildings or cell phones and very little wifi. There are still some phone booths.
Experience the beautiful hike
As a result of volcanic activity seven million years ago, the island has a unique ecosystem, covered with lush forests with hiking trails. Walking or cycling is the best way to find this area which is protected as a marine and tropical park.
Experienced guides at Mount Cover, a day hike at 875 meters above sea level. But many more accessible trails pass through subtropical forests.
Very modest climbers will love the 3 hour ride on the Malabar mountain slopes. After passing through the magnificent forests of the Kenya palm trees, we reach the top of the mountain and the edge of a cliff that offers breathtaking views of the sea.
Also family friendly and cool walks can be done by cattle or by bike. The vast forest, home to more than 130 bird species, alternates with beaches with turquoise waters that are not far from the wild trails that cross the area.
Beach activities around the pond
Surrounded by coral reefs on the southern tip of the planet, the island offers many activities for vacationers with its natural marine park. The 11 beaches bathed in clear water bring joy to those who are idle and those who walk on the white sand beaches.

Clubs also offer excursions to visitors to the beach, which is rich in colorful fish, turtles and small sharks. You can go around the island by boat, discover the rock of the Paul Pyramid or go fishing.
All of these activities will only be interrupted by grilled meats that you can cook yourself at a picnic ordered the day before from a caterer or one of the barbecues available to visitors on the beaches of the island. .
