Transport: 
The B1 bus departs Wynyard Station every 5-10 minutes. 

Route: Explore one of Sydney Harbour’s most beautiful walking tracks, the Spit Bridge to Manly Walk. The route hugs the coastline, offering expansive harbour views while juxtaposing harbour-side homes with Aboriginal sites.There are great views both directly of the harbour and with glimpses of the harbour through the lush vegetation that encompasses the track. In addition there is plenty to see along the track with a good range of wildlife and native flora that is totally unexpected in a city of this size so bring your camera. It’s worthwhile bringing your swimming gear so in the warmer months you can take a dip at Manly Beach at the trail end or at several beaches along the way.
