6. Step out of the open parkland and down into a lush, ancient world where the land meets the tide. A little known mangrove walkway trades sweeping vistas for an immersive, close-up journey straight into the heart of a thriving estuarine ecosystem. As you step onto the elevated wooden boardwalk, the ambient sound of the surrounding city completely fades away, replaced by the rhythmic crunch of saltmarsh, the gentle lap of brackish water, and the sharp calls of coastal birdlife. Passing beneath a dense green canopy of grey mangroves, you'll walk right above the muddy forest floor—a hidden world exposed only when the tide retreats.

   45 min

7. Discover a secret foreshore location along the Parramatta River where natural ecology meets ancient heritage. Walk the sandstone headlands to view heritage listed Wallumedegal Aboriginal rock carvings depicting native wildlife and cultural motifs etched directly into the rock. Next, follow the Coastal Mangrove Walkway—an elevated boardwalk winding through dense, protected saltmarsh habitats. At low tide, enjoy views across the river while spotting mud crabs scurrying among mangrove roots and native water birds foraging in the mudflats.

About Sydney

Sydney legger seg rundt en glitrende naturhavn, med et berømt operahus med seiltak, gylne surfestrender og et avslappet liv utendørs.

Sydney Opera House og Sydney Harbour Bridge ser mot hverandre over Circular Quay, der fergene kommer og går. The Rocks, det gamle koloniale kvarteret, har pubber i sandstein og helgemarkeder, og Royal Botanic Garden svinger seg rundt Farm Cove til Mrs Macquarie's Chair, for den klassiske utsikten over begge landemerkene.
