The western rim of the Mt Warning caldera runs north through the Northern Rivers, in the triangle held by Kyogle, Lismore and Nimbin. Billen Cliffs Village sits along one stretch of it — 790 acres, 115 households, a slow road through regrowth that has been coming back since 1982. We acknowledge the Widjabul Wia-bal people as the traditional custodians of this country, and pay respects to elders past, present, and emerging.
