Tottenham Place to Wannagan Lookout

A steep walk from North Gosford to the top of the Rumbalara Reserve. There is some great scenery along the way, and the views from the Wannagan Lookout, back over North Gosford and the surrounding area, are great. An optional sidetrip to the bronze sculpture of Edward John Eyre adds some historic interest to the walk.

Note that the entrance gate on Dolly Ave, for the upper section of Rumbalara, is locked at 8pm each evening.
