"The
day was very enjoyable. The trip up the Kalang River was both entertaining
and educational. There is a completely different aspect from the river
than by travelling by road."
Kay Mitchell

area of 1119 square km with a proportion of that area lying in the world
heritage area of Dorrigo National Park.

The river systems were first discovered by surveyor Hodgkinsin in 1841.
In the early days cedar was a major resource for the area with the rivers
being used as the main transport system. The first load of cedar was sent
down the Bellinger in 1847.
The first Bellinger river pilot Thomas Stewart arrived in1868 and operated
