Track: Hard

Going through the historical 'Fairylands' section of Lane Cove National Park this track has good waterfalls and is signposted well. Unfortunately, much of the track is through urban areas connecting the two major sections of bushlands. Allow extra time to dawdle through Fairylands and read about its historical significance.

Bushwalking can be fun and interesting when you are well prepared. Please ensure you and your group are well prepared and equipped for all possible dangers. The authors, staff and owners of wildwalks take care in preparing these notes but do not accept responsibility for any inconvenience, loss or injury sustained when using these notes.
