A stunning 10km harbour walk connecting Manly Beach to Spit Bridge along the northern shores of Sydney Harbour. The trail passes through pockets of bushland, across sandy beaches, past Aboriginal shell middens, and along dramatic harbour clifftops. Views of the harbour and city skyline accompany you for much of the walk. Considered one of the best urban walks in Australia with regular bus connections at both ends.
Know before you go
Allow 3-4 hours one way. Several swimming beaches along the route for a break. Catch a ferry to Manly and bus from Spit Bridge for a one-way walk. Some sections are steep and rocky.
