Route:  
This is a lovely walk taking you along the quiet Berry's Bay and on to Balls Head, this route is located on what feels like the middle of Sydney Harbour, which it very much is. Expect amazing scenic views of Goat Island, Balmain, the Sydney Harbour Bridge as well as an interesting peak in to old ships that line the old Coal Loader platform.

Along the way you’ll experience bushland, a secret garden which makes you feel like you’re a million miles away from the city and even an ancient aboriginal carving. 

The trail starts in an area that has been radically transformed from a coal and oil industrial site to a regenerated inner city garden space, blending some of Sydney’s history with the modern urban development.
