Cremorne Point

Cremorne Point Reserve Path is a 3km loop walk with views of Sydney Harbour, Mosman Bay and Kurraba Point. 

Easiest way to get to Cremorne Point is via ferry from Circular Quay. I love riding the ferry to or from my walks. I never get tired of the views of Sydney Opera House.


The path is clearly marked and mostly concrete. There are a lot of walkers on this path and several dogs on leash.  

A short walk from the wharf is the Robertsons Point Lookout. From here you can see the Robertsons Point Lighthouse. You can also come nearer the lighthouse by climbing down some steps and a steel ladder.


There are also views of Sydney Harbour from this lookout.


From the lighthouse, you can either go clockwise or counterclockwise the reserve path. I went counterclockwise. From the east side you can see views of Mosman Bay.





I left the path and walked along Hodgson Ave to get to the west side of the reserve. This part of the walk is plain residential roads.

From the west side of the reserve you will be able to see views of Kurraba Point.


As you get back to the wharf the Sydney Harbour Bridge and Opera House will be visible again.


At the wharf there is a coffee shop where you can rest while waiting for the next ferry back to the city.


Here is a Google Maps of the track I took:

Concord Foreshore Trail

Concord Foreshore Trail is a 6km tree trail from Rhodes to Concord West. It passes through the Kokoda Track Memorial Walkway, around Concord Repatriation General Hospital and around Yaralla House. This trail is one of the quietest tracks I have taken so far having seen only a few people along the trail. This can be relaxing but can also be a bit uncomfortable.  There is construction work at the hospital which forced me to go around residential streets to find the access back to the trail. Without this detour the trail would only be 5km. To get to the starting point of this trail I took the train to Rhodes. From the train station, cross the roads to Brays Bay Reserve. Kokoda Track Memorial Walkway Concord Foreshore Trail starts at Kokoda Track Memorial Walkway. It is a very well maintained concrete and wooden track. There are also audio guides playing along the walkway. Brays Bay Reserve At the end of this walkway, the trail loops around the Concord Repatriation General Hospital. Around

Hermitage Foreshore Walk

Hermitage Foreshore Walk is a 2km coastal walk along Hermitage Reserve. I started the walk at the Bayview Hill Rd end of Hermitage Foreshore Walk. From the city, I took Bus 324 to "New South Head near Vaucluse" stop. After a short but steep downhill walk along Bayview Hill Rd, I was surprised to see the start of the track right beside a modern townhouse apartment! The whole track is clearly marked with signs and the pathway is mostly made of wood. There are several stairs made of stone on this track, but not too many. I passed by a lot of walkers and a few joggers. The track is part of Sydney Harbour National Park so dogs are not allowed. Most of the track has amazing views of the city skyline and Sydney Harbour Bridge. Queen's beach is a small sandy beach. I did not see anyone swimming here. Hermit Point seems to be a good spot for fishing and Hermit Beach is another small sandy beach. There are amazing views of the city skyline from here. It was still Spring but look at

Centennial Park: Busbys Pond and Duck Pond Loop

Busbys Pond and Duck Pond loop is a 4km loop around Centennial Park.  It has asphalt pathway for walkers and joggers. Cars and bikes share the road around the park. Dogs are allowed on leash along the walking paths and allowed to roam on the grass. There are also dedicated paths for horses around the park.  I took the tram from the city to Moore Park. Buses also go here from the city. From the tram/bus stop, walk along Lang Rd to get to the start of the loop. It was raining on that day. I was wondering why it's called a duck pond, and lo and behold, there are ducks crossing the street! It's amusing to see cars waiting for the ducks to cross the road. There are nice views of water and greenery around the Centennial Park. I will surely be back when the weather is nicer here at Centennial Park. Here is a Google Maps of the track I took: Google Maps of Busbys Pond and Duck Pond Loop Here is a short video of a part of the loop:
