  • Review this attraction
  • Bounded by the Hawkesbury River to the north and Pittwater to the east, this gorgeous native bushland is a bushwalker’s and kayaker’s delight. There are numerous walking trails, picnic-and campgrounds, lookouts, hundreds of Aboriginal rock art sites, secluded beaches, a tucked-away restaurant overlooking the water at Cottage Point and marinas at Akuna Bay and Bobbin Head. Cycling and horseriding are allowed in certain sections of the park. Flora and fauna highlights include banksias, waratahs, Sydney red gums, kangaroos, flying foxes, pelicans, platypus, blue-tongued lizards, cockatoos and parrots. The visitors centre runs activities and provides maps and other useful information.
