**Royal National Park Coast Walk (Amended) - Reverse - 28.5 km**

This is **SYDNEY'S PREMIER COASTAL WALK**, taking us through the world's second oldest national park, the magnificent **Royal National Park, Sydney**. There are long term track closures in the southern areas of the RNP. But there is a way through so let's do it!

From **Cronulla Ferry Wharf** we cross to Bundeena and get straight into the first section through to Wattamolla, for a short break and use the local bathrooms.

Our second stop is **Garawarra Farm** via **Curra Moors Trail**, where there are also toilets. Fire trails and a classic bush walk for the final few kilometers get us to **Otford Train Station** for the trip back to Sydney.

**Distance:** 28.5 km

**Type of Walk:** Full day adventure filled with great natural beauty, coastal tracks, rich diversity of pristine eco-systems and abandoned beaches. Some moderate climbs.

**Difficulty:** Hard, for distance. We will be winding through forest, up and down headlands and crossing long beaches. **A good level of fitness and personal commitment is required**. **NO get out points** for this walk; you must finish the entire walk.

**Walking Pace:** We must average 4,5KMH and will pick up pace where track conditions allow.

**Meeting Place and Transport:** Our train leaves **Central Station Platform 25 at 7.22AM** arriving Cronulla 8.19AM. Go straight to the Cronulla Ferry Wharf for the 8.30AM ferry to Bundeena. Transport back is by train for Otford Station, at either 5,15PM or 5.32PM.

**What to bring:** Good walking shoes/trail runners; 2-3 litres of water; hydrolytes; two snacks and one lunch; light rain jacket depending on conditions; sunscreen and a cap or hat with a wide brim.

**YOU MUST BRING ALL WATER AND FOOD; I CARRY 3 LITRES OF FLUID FOR THIS WALK, SO PLEASE BRING PLENTY; NO REFILLS.**

**Suggested Donation:** $10
