Bondi to Manly in 7 Stages! - Spit Bridge to Manly 12KM

Spit Bridge to Manly 12KM Moderate

We meet directly outside Grumpys Wharf Café which is 30 metres from the intersection of Spit Road and Parriwi Road by no later than 10:30AM. (Bus service to this location is high frequency). We walk across the Spit Bridge and around to Clontarf Beach for a quick coffee stop and toilet break.

A further 2km in we inspect Grotto Point Lighthouse (it is still operational) and the site of Aboriginal rock carvings and pushing along, past magnificent views of the east harbour, to Tania Park, Balgowlah, where we stop for lunch, 6.5KM in.

Lunch Options: Eat your packed lunch in Tania Park, where there is seating and a bathroom. Or, members can buy lunch at Balgowlah Bowling Club which is 300 meters away together with a Café and an Indian Takeout. Spoiled for choice!

After lunch we hit the Dobroyd Headland trail and descend to the lookout for some pictures, no doubt. We then pass Fourty Baskets Beach and Jillings Cove and head for Manly Wharf via the Fairlight Beach walk.

What to Bring: Please bring snacks and lunch, hat, sunscreen, plenty of water. Members may purchase lunch (see above options) or eat your own food at Tania Park.

Pub: Ivanhoe Hotel, Manly Corso
