Sydney Metro Walk! Crows Nest - Circular Quay via North Shore Magic! 14KM
We meet at Crows Nest Metro Station Pacific Highway exit by 10:30AM on the day and head off through Royal North Shore Hospital Precinct and the historic Gore Hill Cemetery before crossing the Pacific Highway and dropping into a bush track that takes us through to Northwood, and Sydney Harbour.
More bush tracks lead through Greenwich to Berry Island and on to the historic Coal Loader at Waverton where we stop for lunch and to use the bathroom. Yay! MEMBERS SHOULD BRING YOUR FOOD; THE CAFE IS USUALLY QUITE BUSY.
After lunch we hit more trails through Berry's Bay and Saw Millers Reserve before joining backstreets for a grand-stand finish including Blues Point, Lavender Bay, a Wendy's Secret Garden, a stroll through the wild colour of Luna Park and a great ferry ride under that big Bridge back to Circular Quay for a train or a tasty beer at the newly refurbished Jacksons On George!
Distance: 12KM
Type of Walk: This classic Harbour Walk has amazing variety and is a good excuse the check out our new Metro Trains!
