(0 km) Tryon Rd to Tryon Rd track and Two creeks track int
Track: Moderate - Bush Track
Distance = 0.3 km Time = 5 mins
Climb = 1 m Descent = -32 m
From the Tryon Rd at the sign saying 'Two Creeks Track' this trail heads north along the bushtrack. Shortly after the beginning the track passes underneath the overhang of the cliffs which are supported by stone pillars. This meanders down until reaching an intersection with several other bushtracks with signs pointing up to the Slade Av Carpark.

(0.35 km) Tryon Rd track and Two creeks track int to Int East of tunnel under Eastern Arterial Rd
Track: Moderate - tunnel

Climb = 11 m Descent = -2 m
From the intersection the track turns to the north and joins the creek for a short while, following the signs for the Two Creeks Track before coming to a tunnel under Eastern Arterial Rd. At the eastern end of the tunnel the track goes up a small set of stairs to an intersection with a servicetrail coming from Eastern Arterial Rd. (this tunnel cannot be used during of after heavy rain)

(0.59 km) Int East of tunnel under Eastern Arterial Rd to Two Creeks and Gordon Creek Bushtrack Intersection
Track: Moderate - Service Trail
Distance = 1 km Time = 20 mins

Distance = 2.7 km Time = 1 Hrs
Climb = 129 m Descent = -144 m
From the intersection the track heads along the servicetrail to the north-east passing by a large water pipeline that crosses Gordon Creek. About 200m after passing the pipeline the servicetrail comes to a reasonably large clearing. From here the track narrows to a bushtrack and heads up a steep set of rockstairs. At the top of these stairs the track flattens out and continues east, parallel to Middle Harbour Creek. Following Middle Harbour creek the track tends further and further to the South until just before Moores Creek. North of Moores creek the track turns west and follows the creek up to a bridge. After crossing the bridge the track continues south for approximately 200m before coming to an intersection with a servicetrail and another bridge. This is marked by a sign saying Carlye Rd.

(4.23 km) Two Creeks and Carlyle road track Int. to Roseville Bridge Intersection

From the intersection the track crosses the wooden footbridge and continues east along the bushtrack, nearing and running parrallel to Middle Harbour Creek. Davidson Park is visible for much of this section of track on the northern bank of the creek. This track slowly turns south east and goes under Roseville Bridge still on the bushtrack. Just after crossing under the bridge the track widens into a servicetrail for approximately 30m before coming to an intersection with a small bushtrack verging off the trail and heading down to the foreshore.

Garigal National Park Check for park closures and fire bans

Largely following Middle Harbour Creek and stretching from Seaforth in the south to St Ives in the north Garigal National Park is hidden through Sydney's Northern suburbs. Despite how close it is to large urban centres Garigal is quite beautiful with lots of different walking and cycling tracks. For those just wishing to picnic Davidson Reserve is a great spot just next to Middle Harbour Creek, under the Roseville Bridge.

Cost to drive a car into the park (if you do not have a valid pass)

$7

Public toilets are available in the park
