Sydney

It's over 100 years old (the 2nd oldest in the world in fact) and boasts over 100km of bush walking tracks, set on 16,000 hectares. Experience nature amongst lush rainforests, stunning beaches, gorgeous picnic grounds and much more!

The Royal National Park features a multitude of landscapes from open grasslands to dramatic cliffs and secluded beaches that are definitely worth the walk. As you'd expect the scenery is sublime and everyone is catered for - from accessible short strolls through to a two-day excursion for the super keen. The annual Sydney to Gong bike ride also takes in part of the park, emerging at Ball Hill for a mesmerising first view of the Illawarra coastline.

Head south along Lady Wakehurst Drive to exit the Royal National Park and you will emerge at Bald Hill Lookout, Stanwell Tops. Head north, west on Lawrence Hargrave Drive and take a detour to Helensburgh for Symbio Wildlife Park and hand feed free roaming Kangaroos and cuddle up to Koala's. Following Symbio take the 1st exit onto the Princes Hwy towards Darkes Forest to tastes the world's best cider at Darkes Glenbernie Orchard.
