The Bullimah Lookout Track follows the spur down the hill from Killcare Heights Lookout and carpark. The bush track passes between burnt and unburnt bush on opposite sides of the track which makes for an interesting contrast. There are excellent views from Bullimah Lookout over Maitland Bay.

Bouddi National Park Check for park closures and fire bans

Bouddi National Park is south east of Woy Woy and encompasses the Box Head headland. Bouddi NP has numerous secluded beaches and some great surf beaches too. The park also offers fantastic coastal walking with views out from the tall headlands over Broken Bay, Woy Woy and the South Pacific Ocean. Bouddi NP also boasts one of the first marine extensions in NSW, with a 300ha protection zone out of Maitland Bay for the marine life. The mosquitoes in Bouddi NP can be fierce so it might be an idea to pack insect repellent.
