Byron Eco Park is founded by Dieter Horstmann on a deep respect for the land. Before any development, we honour its spirit with love – not greed. This space is sacred, carrying the stories of First Australians and our own personal journey.

Our goal is to create a living example of what’s possible when community, ethical business, and sustainability come together. The park will serve as a showcase for innovative ideas, including forward-thinking aviation, and demonstrate how excellence can thrive in harmony with nature.

This is more than a project – it’s a legacy. A place that, in years to come, will be recognised as a meaningful and enduring contribution to our beautiful region and to the world.

Dieter Horstmann has been working tirelessly for over three decades inspiring and facilitating the work of passionate, like minded people for the furtherance of environmental preservation, protection and sustainability. Dieter’s focus has been to provide the spaces and materials needed for innovators and cultural creators to flourish.

Byron Eco Park (AKA Eagle Farm), represents the culmination of Dieters vision grounded upon a colourful and profoundly spiritual experience through the years.

“As a single person, I cannot change the world. But hoping others think the same, together we may can!”

Byron Eco Park – A Regenerative Sanctuary of Scale and Spirit

Nestled in the heart of Tyagarah, Byron Eco Park spans 75 hectares (185 acres) of diverse terrain—pristine forests, heathland, and fertile farmland—interwoven with access roads, walkways, and panoramic vistas. This visionary precinct offers 360° views from Byron Bay to Mt Chincogan and Mt Warning, with spring-fed creeks and multiple dams ensuring abundant water supply.

The landscape is alive with native flora and fauna: ironbark, eucalyptus, brushbox, bottlebrush, paperbark, red banksia, and macadamia trees shelter wallabies, kangaroos, koalas, goannas, and soaring eagles. Sculptural monoliths and a hand-built stone castle anchor the park’s artistic spirit, complemented by an underground ‘castle’ constructed using alternative methods.

A light industrial zone supports Manuka Honey production, Flow Hive innovation, and aviation tourism—hot air ballooning, skydiving, gliding, and hang gliding—adjacent to the local airport. The solar energy plant and onsite storage achieve net-zero energy, powering a community studio complex for exhibitions and gatherings.

The proposed Byron Eco Park is more than land—it’s a living canvas for regenerative culture, ecological stewardship, and creative enterprise.
