This fantastic experience allows you to go bushwalking along Sydney's iconic Coast Track in the Royal National Park and experience secluded beaches, aboriginal carvings, waterfalls, unique sandstone formations and heritage-listed shack communities which are all easily accessible and less than one hour by road or public transport from the CBD in the beautiful Sutherland Shire in the Southern suburbs of Sydney. It is a fully supported walking and camping adventure in the amazing Royal National Park, Sutherland.

All camping equipment is transported and everything is taken care of for you, leaving you free to experience the beauty of the outdoors without the burden of a heavy pack - its like camping but without all the hard work and effort.

A local guide carries and supplies lunch as well as telling you all about the history of the area and pointing out places of interest. Arrive at the idyllic waterfront campsite for an afternoon of leisure, swimming in the protected bay or freshwater lagoon, playing beach sports or relaxing with a beer or wine. At the end of the day you can relax with your fellow hikers knowing a marinated leg of lamb is roasting on the BBQ for dinner.

This is a small group guided hike, walking up to 30km over two days. It is graded as a medium-level hike as there are several hills on the second day. It is recommend for people with a moderate fitness level and hikers are advised to pack for all weather conditions.

The tours are run by Royal Coast Walks who are fully licensed by the National Parks and Wildlife Service and all guides hold Senior First Aid accreditation and carry satellite phones on every trip to ensure your safety.
