How long is The Coast Track in the Royal National Park?

The Coast Track in Sydney's Royal National Park stretches 26km between Bundeena and Otford. While it can be tackled in one day, most hikers prefer to overnight at North Era campground and do it over two days.

Do I need to book accommodation if I plan to do the hike over two days?

Yes, you'll need to book North Era campground online if you plan to camp overnight here. It's a popular place so book well in advance, especially from October to March.

What should I bring if I am hiking The Coast Track?

Drinking water, hat, snacks, sturdy shoes, suitable clothing, sunscreen, tent, sleeping bag and raincoat. Check the NPWS Coast track webpage to plan your trip. Check the safety information, including park fire and closure alerts.

Is there a map I can follow on my phone while hiking?

Hikers can use the NPWS app and download the map for Royal National Park before you leave home. You'll be able to track your location even when you are offline and lose mobile phone reception.

Are there entry fees for the Royal National Park?

Yes, there are entry fees to enter the Royal National Park. $12 per vehicle per day. Payment options include Audley Visitor Centre, vehicle entry stations, pay machines and the Park’nPay app. Vehicles over 8 seats: $4.40 per adult, $2.20 per child (per day). Students on educational programs: $1.10 per student. Teachers/educational supervisors: free (1 adult per 10 students).

There are two separate Youtube accounts. If you have never uploaded a video before, you'll most likely need to add the profile account to your computer, which it will then keep open as a profile and you can switch between users afterwards. So log into the relevant Google Account "profile" first, as Youtube sits within a google profile - either Sydney or Visitnsw. I have a screenshot below of where to click for this, you only need to do the "adding" once as mentioned above. Sydney: Sydney account: @sydney Profile: https://www.youtube.com/user/seesydney Millie and Jenny have the login details VisitNSW: VisitNSW account @visitnsw Profile: https://www.youtube.com/user/visitnsw Millie and Jenny have the login details

Once you have logged in, you can go to Youtube. If you haven't logged in yet at this step please go back to the Logging Into Youtube section above and use the information provided. Any issues come and ask Millie, if she's not there you can text her. Channel URLs: Sydney Visitnsw Checklist Before uploading anything, check the brief and make sure you have all the information you need. A checklist I've created: The video file itself Which channel they would like the video to be uploaded onto (sometimes an international ad will include NSW content but is still uploaded to Sydney) The level of publishing they want for the video. Either Public or Unlisted Public = Published to the channel to live as content viewable intended for general consumers Unlisted = Viewable by anyone with the url to the video specifically, but not published to the channel. This would be mostly for Advertisements, as you can embed/link the video anywhere, but it's not part of a "playlist" to be displayed. The video title to have displayed to consumers (this is publicly visible) The video description to have displayed to consumers (this is publicly visible) A url to include for the viewer to have a CTA available/action to learn more Any #'s they would like included at the end of the description to help with SEO If the video should be added to an existing playlist Ready to upload Make sure you have downloaded the file from the link provided to you in the brief. If there are multiple videos per brief, it's strongly advised to do one download at a time, then delete it from your own files once complete and then do the next, to avoid any mistakes of uploading the wrong video, or the same video multiple times. Note: you can change copy/title fields once a video is uploaded, but if there is an issue with the video file itself, you will have to start again and will get provided a whole new url. You cannot use a placeholder video, the platform won't allow it. For edits, see the tab below in this FAQ. Now that you've downloaded your video, click the film camera with a plus sign top right of the channel screen, and select "Upload Video": Upload file: Title & Description Fields - the "Details" screen Fill in the details of the "Title" and the "Description". The title field will need to be replaced as it auto-populates the video file name. Insert the description above the prefilled content. When filling in the description, please don't backspace what has been prefilled, rather just enter it down and paste in the copy briefed in so it sits above it. The copy underneath the line indication is prefilled to help all videos with SEO. You should never need to touch this copy. After you've pasted in the description, paste in the CTA, which you do not need to hyperlink. Youtube hyperlinks it for you, just make sure the whole url is pasted in, inc https:// After you've pasted in the CTA, include the hashtags that were provided in the brief. You don't need to do anything extra here either. Once this is done, scroll down on the page, before you hit next to select the thumbnail (next point for instructions). Thumbnail & Playlists Once you've scrolled down underneath the Title & Description, you'll be provided with 3 image options as a "thumbnail" - this is what the viewer see's as the little window preview when the video is linked somewhere. Currently we do not have a dedicated Youtube staff member to be producing individual thumbnails, so in lieu of this role, select/click the preview window that looks the best from the options generated. You can then also select from the drop-down which Playlist this video should be part of, if one has been identified in the brief. This section may take some time to load, that is okay, the platform is just processing the footage so sometimes needs some patience. Once these are done, click "next" Video Elements & Checks You will then be shown a screen titled " Video Elements " - when there is a dedicated Youtube staff member they can do lots of fun elements and variations to a video that pop-up, but they take time to build, so in lieu of this staff member you can click 'next' (unless specified for a special Brand Video etc). You'll then be shown a "Checks" page, where it will let you know there's no copyright infringements, so you can again click 'next' . Visibility This is an important slide, it's where you choose the publishing level for the video. It will default to "Unlisted" - this is okay for most ads (except big brand ones) - just choose which level was entered in the brief. There are extra prompts here to help for clarifying the levels, and as mentioned earlier my explanations are: Public = Published to the channel as a "post" and as content viewable intended for general consumers/everyone. E.g. A feature video on Tamworth. Unlisted = Viewable by anyone with the url to the video specifically, but not published to the channel. This would be mostly for Advertisements, as you can embed/link the video anywhere, but it's not part of a "playlist" to be displayed. E.g. Singapore 30second ad. URL Generated It is also on this screen that you will be provided the specific URL for your youtube. You can copy/save this now and select "SAVE". If you forget to copy it, it's okay, you can still copy it at the next screen, or open this video at any point and take the url. You have now uploaded a Youtube Video!

Editing an existing Youtube video

You can edit any copy on a video, or the "visibility status" - but you cannot edit the video file itself. Note: If the wrong video file is uploaded, you cannot switch it out, you'll need to upload a new video and provide a new URL. The platform won't let you do it (which is so users can't upload and switch content that generates a certain public response and then change the content later but keeping all the engagement and comments etc). There's no work around for this. What you can do though is: Edit the copy/visibility/description/thumbnail Log into the right profile - either Sydney or Visit - if any issues, please review the "Log In" tab above. If you werent provided the URL to the video head to the "Content' tab, selected from the far left of your Youtube page: You can either search for your video if you know the name of it in the search bar at the top, or you can scroll down the list. If viewing from this method, find your video and click on the little pencil icon for the "details" Change whatever is needed to be changed and hit "save" top right If you were provided the specific video url, e.g. https://youtu.be/yte932-Wrqk , you can select the "edit video" button and edit it that way:

登入 Youtube

有兩個獨立的 Youtube 帳號。

如果您以前從未上傳過視頻，您很可能需要將個人資料帳戶添加到您的計算機，然後它將作為個人資料保持打開狀態，之後您可以在用戶之間切換。

因此，首先登入相關的 Google 帳戶“個人資料”，因為 Youtube 位於 Google 個人資料內 - 悉尼或 Visitnsw。

下面我有一個螢幕截圖，顯示了單擊的位置，您只需按照上面提到的操作執行一次“添加”即可。

Youtube 登入

上傳影片

登入後，您就可以造訪 YouTube 了。如果您在此步驟尚未登錄，請返回上面的「登入 YouTube」部分，並使用提供的資訊。如有任何問題，請隨時聯繫 Millie，如果她不在，您可以給她發短信。

頻道網址：

清單

上傳任何內容之前，請務必查看簡介，確保已包含所有所需資訊。我建立了一份清單：

視訊檔案本身
他們希望將影片上傳到哪個頻道（有時國際廣告會包含新南威爾斯的內容，但仍上傳到悉尼）
他們希望影片的發布等級。公開或不公開
公開 =發佈到頻道，作為供一般消費者觀看的內容
不公開 =任何知道影片 URL 的人都可以觀看，但不會發佈到頻道。這主要用於廣告，因為您可以將影片嵌入/連結到任何地方，但它不會作為「播放清單」的一部分顯示。
向消費者顯示的影片標題（公開可見）
向消費者展示的影片描述（公開可見）
為檢視者提供可用的 CTA/操作以了解更多資訊的 URL
他們希望在描述末尾添加任何 # 來幫助 SEO
如果要將影片新增至現有播放列表

準備上傳

確保您已從簡介中提供的連結下載了檔案。

如果每個簡報中有多個視頻，強烈建議一次下載一個，然後在完成後將其從自己的文件中刪除，然後再進行下一個，以避免上傳錯誤的視頻或多次上傳相同的視頻。

注意：影片上傳後，您可以修改文案/標題字段，但如果影片檔案本身有問題，則需要重新上傳，並會獲得一個全新的 URL。您無法使用佔位符視頻，平台不允許這樣做。如需修改，請參閱此常見問題下方的標籤頁。

現在您已經下載了視頻，請點擊頻道螢幕右上角帶有加號的電影相機，然後選擇“上傳視頻”：

準備上傳

上傳文件：

上傳文件

標題和描述欄位 - “詳細資料”螢幕

填寫「標題」和「描述」的詳細資料。標題欄位需要替換，因為它會自動填入視訊檔案名稱。將描述插入到預先填充內容上方。

填寫說明時，請勿按退格鍵刪除已預先填寫的內容，只需向下輸入並貼上上方簡要說明的文案即可。行號下方的文案已預填，旨在幫助所有影片進行 SEO。您無需修改此文案。

貼上描述後，貼上 CTA（無需添加超連結）。 Youtube 會幫你添加超鏈接，只需確保貼上完整的 URL，包括https://

貼上 CTA 後，請新增簡介中提供的主題標籤。您無需在此處執行任何額外操作。

完成後，向下捲動頁面，然後點擊下一步選擇縮圖（下一點說明）。

YouTube 的標題和描述字段

縮圖和播放列表

向下捲動到標題和說明下方後，您將看到 3 個圖像選項作為「縮圖」 - 這是當影片連結到某處時觀眾看到的小視窗預覽。

目前，我們沒有專門的 Youtube 工作人員來製作單獨的縮圖，因此，代替這個角色，從生成的選項中選擇/點擊看起來最好的預覽視窗。

然後，您也可以從下拉式選單中選擇此影片應該屬於哪個播放清單（如果簡介中已確定）。

此部分可能需要一些時間來加載，沒關係，平台只是在處理鏡頭，所以有時需要一些耐心。

完成後，按一下“下一步”

視訊元素和檢查

然後，您將看到一個標題為“視頻元素”的屏幕 - 如果有專門的 Youtube 工作人員，他們可以為彈出的視頻添加許多有趣的元素和變化，但這需要時間來構建，因此您可以代替該工作人員單擊“下一步” （除非指定為特殊品牌視頻等）。

然後，您將看到一個「檢查」頁面，它會告訴您沒有侵犯版權的行為，因此您可以再次按一下「下一步」 。

能見度

這是一張重要的幻燈片，您可以在此選擇影片的發布等級。

預設為「未列出」—大多數廣告（大品牌廣告除外）都可以—只需選擇在簡介中輸入的層級即可。這裡有額外的提示，可以幫助您明確級別，正如之前提到的，我的解釋如下：

公開 = 以「貼文」形式發佈到頻道，內容開放給一般消費者/所有人。例如，關於塔姆沃思的專題影片。
不公開 = 任何知道影片 URL 的人都可以觀看，但不會發佈到頻道。這主要用於廣告，因為您可以將影片嵌入/連結到任何地方，但它不會作為播放清單的一部分顯示。例如，新加坡 30 秒廣告。

能見度

產生的 URL

此畫面上也會顯示 YouTube 的特定 URL。您可以立即複製/儲存，然後選擇“儲存”。如果您忘記複製，沒關係，您仍然可以在下一個畫面上複製，或隨時打開此影片並獲取 URL。

保存影片

已發布

您現在已上傳 Youtube 影片！

編輯現有的 Youtube 視頻

您可以編輯影片的任何副本或「可見性狀態」 - 但不能編輯影片檔案本身。

注意：如果上傳了錯誤的影片文件，您將無法將其替換，您需要上傳新的影片並提供新的網址。平台不允許您這樣做（這樣用戶就無法上傳和替換那些引起一定公眾反響的內容，之後再更改內容，但保留所有參與度和評論等）。這種情況沒有其他解決方法。

但你可以做的是：

編輯副本/可見性/描述/縮圖

登入正確的個人資料 -悉尼或訪問 - 如果有任何問題，請查看上面的「登入」標籤。

如果您沒有提供影片的 URL，請前往 Youtube 頁面最左側的「內容」標籤：

“內容”選項卡

如果您知道視頻名稱，則可以在頂部的搜尋欄中搜尋視頻，或者您可以向下滾動列表。

如果透過這種方式觀看，請找到您的影片並點擊小鉛筆圖示以查看“詳細資訊”

編輯影片

更改需要更改的內容，然後點擊右上角的“儲存”

如果您獲得了特定的視訊網址，例如https://youtu.be/yte932-Wrqk ，您可以選擇「編輯影片」按鈕並如下編輯：
