10 travel moments that restored our faith in humanity. Stories of kindness from life on the road.
All my friends are buying houses and having babies, yet I'm about to embark on my fourth big trip travelling. Here's how it feels to give it all up again to travel in your thirties.
The Mount Ku-ring-gai to Berowra walk is one of our favourite station to station walks in Sydney. It’s a fantastic bush walk with lots of variety from vegetation that feels wild and jungly to gorgeous creek views and one of the area’s best lookouts. We’re sharing how hard the track is, what the terrain is like and everything else you need to know about the trail.
The Basin and Mackerel circuit walk is one of our favourites in Ku-ring-gai. With stunning bushland, spectacular views, several calm water beaches and lots of wild wallabies, it’s a hard one to beat. We’ll tell you exactly how to do this walk, as it is not signposted as a circuit, as well as how hard it is and everything else you need to know.
If you’re looking for a hike with endless secluded coves and near constant harbour views the Rose Bay to Watsons Bay walk is for you. It also starts and ends with one of Sydney’s most beautiful ferry rides. We’ll tell you exactly what to expect from the trail; including all the best stops and how to avoid the crowds.
When you just want to get away from it all, head to Mungo Brush. With the third longest beach in NSW, a pristine lake, rainforest walks and Aboriginal history in a remote setting, it really does feel like a true escape to the wilds. We’re sharing everything you need to know about the area, including details on the campsites.
Wallingat National Park is a NSW hidden gem that few people talk about. This national park is fairly small, but it’s incredibly picturesque and the perfect place to escape the outside world. We’ll tell you everything you need to know about Wallingat: the walks, the beautiful scenic drive, picnic spots, campsite and a beautiful lookout.
If you prefer walks which are a little bit off the beaten track, then the Yacaaba Headland Walk is a great choice. It might be a hidden gem, but that’s not because it’s lacking in views, which are particularly special at sunrise and sunset. We’ll tell you how hard the trail is and everything you need to know about hiking up for sunset.
This great circuit walk in Garigal National Park takes you through gorgeous bushland to the Cascades, one of the best spots in the whole park. You’ll also get the chance to visit two secret waterfalls and maybe even spot a wallaby! We’re sharing everything you need to know including how to find the unmarked waterfalls in this post.
Birdwood Gully is a beautiful short bushwalk with fern lined paths, picturesque overhangs and even a small area of rainforest. By night it comes alive and the caves and cliffsides are illuminated with hundreds and hundreds of glow worms! We’ll tell you exactly what to expect by day and by night, as well as where you’ll find the densest colony of glow worms.
Horseshoe Falls is one of our favourite waterfalls in the Blue Mountains. It’s a gorgeous waterfall which you can even walk behind, but it also offers so much more than that. We’ll tell you what makes this waterfall so special, as well as four other falls which you can reach on one very short walking track.
