Nature, Culture and History Immersion - North Head, Sydney
Overview
An immersive walk from Manly Wharf up to North Head in Sydney Harbour National Park. Not only is North Head one of the best locations to get that iconic Sydney Harbour photo (Including Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge), it is also an area of immense history. From the traditional healers of the Gayamagel People to the early colonists, a Quarantine Station, and North Fort a military complex. There is plenty to learn on this walk.
Today, the area is home to the Long-nosed Bandicoot, Flying Fox, Powerful and Barking Owls, and the Eastern Bentwing and Large eared Pied Bats. There are other 23 reptile species, 144 birds, and 430 different plants. Learn about some of these on the walk.
One of the best locations to view Humpback Whales during the season, but there are plenty of memories to be built all year round.
As you descend you will pass a beautiful look out of the Pacific Ocean, walk down into Shelly Beach (home of some of the best snorkelling and diving in Sydney), take in the stunning coastal walk to Manly, and head back to Manly Wharf.
