The Cremorne Point Foreshore Walk is a scenic walk, that is also very informative about the local area. Take some time out to walk along the point and enjoy what Cremorne Point has to offer. It is about a 30 minute easy walk, but there are entrances and exits along the way if you wish to make it a bit shorter.
You can
download brochures of the walk, which will help you keep an eye out for the notable spots. If you start at Bogota Avenue there are signposted markers that help tell the story of Cremorne Point. These include things like checking out the view, and then taking a look at what it was like in the 1800s, or taking some time out in a beautiful garden.
One point along the walk that is worth checking out is the
MacCallum Pool. The pool was designed for safe swimming in the harbour by residents in the 1920s. It started as a simple rock pool, but now you'll find a decent sized swimming pool, with plenty of spots for relaxing in the sun. The pool is about midway along the walk, so it is the perfect spot to come, have a swim, and then continue on your walk.
Other highlights of the walk must include the views. Not only do you get a great view of the houses perched on the cliff faces, and the boats in the harbour, but you can also take some time out to admire the
Sydney Opera House. As you walk nearer to the Cremorne Point ferry wharf you get a great view of the Opera House, looking across the harbour.
Even without the views, the Cremorne Point Foreshore Walk is a beautiful and relaxing place to walk through. You're surrounded on either side by towering gums, and low lying ferns. There are small grassy patches along the walk, which make the perfect spot to set up a picnic. You'll also find benches if you just want to sit and take some time out.
So head down to Bogota Avenue and start this picturesque walk.
