Aussie Bush at it's Best

by ShelleyKeating - last update: Sep 29, 2006

The Royal National Park separates Sydney from Wollongong and is easily accessible, contains many different walks offering various environments (from cliffs and beaches to grasslands and bush), as well as mountain bike trails on specified tracks.
This is Australia's first national park (established 1879) with 15,000 hectares, and is accessible by public transport. It was the second national park claimed (after Yellowstone National Park). You can dirve through the RNP along Lady Carrington Drive, which is beautiful, but my preferred way of admiring the park's beauty is by walking, or bike riding in it
The 26km Coastal Walk is an incredible 2-day track from Bundeena in the North to Otford in the South. The track takes you over sandstone cliffs, through the shrubby bushlands of the Royal National Park, across golden sand beaches and the palm jungle. It is a medium-hard trail but well worth it, for details check 'Things to do'.
