    Not as spectacular as Manly Scenic Walkway, but nevertheless an interesting walk is the one from Bondi Beach to Coogee Beach. You can start where you want, but we were told the easiest is to walk from Bondi to Coogee. You follow the coast line pretty much all the way and along the way you will come accross many beahces, such as Tamarama and Bronte. You will also pass quite a big graveyard which is situated on the cliffs. There are really huge gravestones here..... Too bad we didn't have a great day, so that might have something to do with the way I value this walk. I might do it again on a sunnier day.

    The best walk I have done so far is the walk from the Spit bridge to Manly. It is a fantastic walk through forests, over beaches and over rocks. You have some amazing lookouts at various stops along the way. At some point it really feels like you are in the middle of the Mediterranean. Clear blue greenish water, lots of sailing boats and yachts etc. Make sure you go out and do this walk on a sunny day during the weekend, because there will be much more happening on the water and on the beaches ;-) To get to the Spit bridge just take bus 460 from Wynyard station and get out at the Spit bridge. Right opposite the stop you will find a kayak rental place. This might be cool to do aswell for a couple of hours, before you start the walk. To actually start the walk, cross the bridge and the continue walking under the bridge and that's where the start is. The walk is very good signposted, so you don't need a map really. Just keep in mind the walk will take you along the water, so always keep the water in sight and you'll be fine. Have fun and let me know what you thought of it. If you want to see some more pics and read some more about this track take a look at my Manly Scenic Walkway travelogue. Click on the link below to see a very detailed map of the walk.

    One of the groups of people under the most turmoil in Australia would have to be the Chinese. As immigrants to this country, they have gone through many years of battles for the right to immigrate to Australia, and still to this day are a bit segregated from the rest of the settlers to the new country. Deep in the heart of downtown Sydney however is a rich heritage of Chinese owned business, especially some delicious restaurants! Sarah and I walked through this part of town in search for some good lunch, and saw the difference between Chinese and British cultures. Definitely worth the walk, and worth the time to stop and have lunch.

    Shelley Beach is a much smaller, more secluded beach to its well-known neighbour, Manly Beach. From the South-end of Manly, one can take a coastal walk of about 10mins around to Shelley Beach. There is also a great cafe on the way that has beautiful fresh seafood and their weekend breakfasts are popular too! Catch a ferry to Manly then walk

    The Scenic Manly Walk is a 10km long rather challenging walk from the Spit Bridge through the Sydney Harbour National Park to Manly . It was one of the highlights of my stay in Sydney! The clearly marked trail leads you through a magnificent and changing landscape up and down the hills. Allow 2 to 3 hours for the walk and avoid the midday heat. Take your swimmers with you, there are some marvellous beaches along the trail. And look at my Travelogue for more pictures!

    Bushwalking, while in Sydney its easy to do some good walking by getting the train to Otford and doing a loop around the Royal National Park. When you get off the train walk up the stairs at the end of the platform and up the hill (600m) til you hit the road, your see a cafe on your right, they have maps for the nearby walks, the loop walk is 3-4 hours in length, great bush & beaches. Note because of the Christmas Bush fires , some parts of the Park have been close so if you want to walk , check with 'National Parks' to see it the path is open, The one described above is still open and there isn't any recent fire damage.

    Cremorne Point, above the
    ferry wharf.
    by linnyloo

    Cremorne Point is a peninsula of land on the Lower North Shore of Sydney Harbour, separating Shell Cove from Mosman Bay. It's a wealthy residential area where the foreshore has been retained as public space, providing access for everyone to enjoy the area's beauty. Finding your way to Cremorne Point couldn't be easier. First, head for the ferry wharves at Circular Quay on the waterfront in central Sydney. At Circular Quay, catch the Mosman ferry. Get off at Cremorne Point. It's worth pausing a while near the wharf to take in the spectacular views of the harbour, opera house, harbour bridge and city skyline from Cremorne Point. When you can tear yourself away from the lovely view, climb the stairs up the small cliff across the road from the wharf to get to the walking path. Please see my travelogue for more photos and deatailed info!
