Natural beauty isn’t something that you associate with the bustling city of Sydney, with its Opera House and abundance of bars, but just a short drive is one of the most beautiful area of New South Wales: Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park.
There’s so much to be said about this park, it’s hard to know where to begin. The second oldest national park in Australia, it holds the world’s most concentrated collection of Aboriginal Heritage sites – over 1,000 – and can take you back to a time before Sydney even existed. Untouched, unspoilt, preserved and protected, Ku-ring-gai Chase boasts many beauty spots, so if you’re looking for some natural beauty while in Sydney, you won’t be disappointed…
One thing that you can’t miss about the park is its waterways. Containing the Hawkesbury River, Pittwater and Cowan Water, as well as countless creeks and coves, it’s the perfect place to make a splash. Enjoy the winding waterways on a boat cruise with Sydney Outback, or just admire the view with a waterfront picnic.
Speaking of views, Ku-ring-gai Chase has plenty. Breathtaking sights overlooking Broken Bay, Lion Island, Palm Beach, Pittwater and the Central Coast are available on a bushwalk where you can also discover rock art dating back thousands of years. Don’t be surprised if you get kangaroos and wallabies vying for your attention – Ku-ring-gai Chase is also a wildlife paradise with even Skippy the Bush Kangaroo calling it home.
Despite all of this, possibly the best thing about Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park is its easy access, which is why it’s so popular with Sydney locals. Just a 45-minute drive from Sydney CBD, this land and water haven is ideal for a morning jog with a difference, a picnic lunch surrounded by nature, or a day out exploring.
Choose the latter and spend the day with Sydney Outback on the Wilderness and Aboriginal Explorer Tour and Cruise. For $199pp, you explore the park by foot and catamaran, learning about the history of the park while seeing it with your own eyes. There’s really nothing quite like it.
