The North Head Walk in Manly is one of Sydney’s most fascinating hikes, with lots of history, panoramic views, and scenic beaches to enjoy.
What’s great about this adventure is that it is both a coastal walk as well as a bush walk. And while it is a rather long trail, it is suitable for all ages and fitness levels.
Hiking in the Lake Parramatta Reserve offers a great day out, as you walk through 75ha of bushland, around an idyllic lake with a decommissioned dam.

The short but scenic Box Head Track in Bouddi National Park meanders through bushland towards the Box Head lookout, offering panoramic views of Broken Bay, Lion Island, the Hawkesbury River and the Barrenjoey Headland.
There is an option to extend this walk by doing a short detour to beautiful Lobster Beach via the Flannel Flower walking track.
Bouddi National Park may not be on top of everyone’s list when looking for new walking tracks to explore. But this 15 km2 national park is actually home to some very pretty and unique bush and coastal walks.
Established in 1967 as a National Park, Bouddi was named after the local Aboriginal name of the area. There are still lots of Aboriginal sites to be found in the park, such as middens, engravings, and rock shelters.
The Winifred Falls Trail is a relatively short but scenic bushwalk that takes you to the pretty Winifred Falls in the Royal National Park.
Relax on one of the many rock platforms at the waterfall, or venture out a bit further to South West Arm Pool or Anice Falls.
