🌿 Why You’ll Love This Hike

Starting in St Ives on Sydney’s upper north shore, we’ll follow Bungaroo Track and Lyrebird Track, two beautiful trails through native bush and creekside paths, full of natural beauty and wildlife.

We’ll descend through rocky outcrops and pass banksias, grevilleas, and seasonal wildflowers. At the base, we’ll reach the historic Stepping Stones Crossing, where Governor Arthur Phillip camped during his first expedition in 1788.

After a break at Davidson Park, we’ll retrace our steps and return to where we started, taking in the sights on the way back.
