Why locals recommend it
The perfect combination of stunning views and bushy terrain through Sydney Harbour National Park in North Sydney. One way, the route spans about nine kilometres, but the 18 km out-and-back is really worth it. At Dobroyd Head, the highest point of the trail, you can enjoy nearly 360-degree views of Sydney. If you’re lucky, you might spot a whale. You can start at Manly Beach or the Spit Bridge. If you only want to go one way, bus to the Spit and catch one of Sydney’s famous ferries back to the city from Manly. The ride, with the wind in your hair and the views around the headland of the Opera House to the Sydney Harbour Bridge, is incredible.

Manly wharf - is where you can catch a ferry across to Circular Quay for a day out in Sydney City.

If you want to really see Sydney sparkle, catch a ferry from Manly wharf into Circular Quay or another foreshore location. You can take the slow ferry and enjoy the ride, or pay a little more for the fast ferry to get there in 20 minutes. Circular Quay is just near the Opera House, Botanical Gardens and The Rocks so an excellent place to explore the city.

Catch the fast ferry or public transport ferry to CBD, Darling Harbor, Rose Bay, Taronga Zoo or Watsons Bay

The most beautiful way to get into the CBD. The ferry station is next to the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge.
