Sunday Fitness Walk: Manly - North Head - Manly! 13.5KM

Sunday Fitness Walk: Manly to North Head back to Manly! 13.5KM

We meet at Circular Quay Ferry Wharf 3, Side B to catch the 10:30AM Ferry to Manly, arriving 10:52AM. Quickly underway we skirt East Cove, Little Manly Beach and Little Manly Point, before hitting a bush track through to Collins Beach. We avoid the security at the Australian Police Management training institute and walk up to North Head Scenic Drive which takes us to the historic Quarantine Station, its museum, Café, and toilets where we take lunch 6KM into the walk.

Lunch Options: Eat your packed lunch at the Q Station foreshore park where there is seating and a bathroom. Members can buy snacks and drinks at the Q Station Café.

After lunch we head for Fairfax Lookout and some of the most stunning views of Sydney Harbour; it is very striking. We then traverse the seaward side of North head, with a Hanging Swamp along the way and opening up to spectacular views north to the Central Coast; Norah head Lighthouse - 60KM away - is in view on a clear day. We finish our day walking through Shelley Beach and Fairy Bower on our way to the Corso and the Ivanhoe Hotel for a refreshment.

What to Bring: Please bring snacks and lunch, hat, sunscreen, plenty of water. Members may purchase a light lunch or eat your own food at Q Station.

Pub: Ivanhoe Hotel, Manly Corso
