At the end of 2018, six city councils along with other agencies, decided to create a coastal and harbour-side walking track between two famous beaches in Sydney, Bondi Beach and Manly Beach. The result of this collaboration is the epic 80km Bondi to Manly Walk. The details can be found on www.bonditomanly.com or the B2M app. We will walk the Bondi to Manly Walk in seven stages together, walking one stage at a time on the first Tuesday of the month from June to December.

In September, we will do the fourth leg of Bondi to Manly Walk from Circular Quay to to Taronga Zoo Wharf. The walk is approximately 14.5km with an elevation gain of 282m. The walk will take around 3.5 hours to complete.

Starting the day by exploring The Rocks and crossing the Harbour Bridge, we will be able to see parts of where we have been and where we are going. From here, we will explore parts of Kirribilli, such as Admiralty House, Kirribilli House and Sub Base Platypus, before continuing through to Neutral Bay, where May Gibbs’ Nutcote house is located. Continuing to Cremorne Point Reserve, we will pass one of Sydney’s impressive seawater pools; MacCallum Pool. Robertson Lighthouse marks the end of Cremorne Point, which boasts magnificent views of Sydney Harbour and is the perfect spot for a scenic picnic/lunch break.

Following the trail, we will find ourselves passing through Mosman Bay, then arriving at Sirius Cove and, finally, at Taronga Zoo. (Excerpts from www.bonditomanly.com).

More details will be sent to members who are participating closer to the event date.
