The Southern Highlands

Embark on a journey just an hour south of the bustling city and find yourself amidst the ancient wonders of Royal National Park. Delight in the ever-changing tapestry of vegetation that greets you at every turn, leading you to emerge from the lush foliage to panoramic vistas at a breathtaking south coast lookout. Follow the famed Grand Pacific Drive, tracing its winding path to the captivating spectacle of the Kiama Blow Hole, where the sea demonstrates its raw power before your eyes. Take respite with a leisurely lunch and a stroll through the charming streets of Berry, a much loved country village.

Ascend from the coastal realms into the Highlands, where nature's bounty unfolds in a myriad of habitats. Pause for a brief bush walk at Fitzroy Falls, where the chorus of birdsong serenades your senses, inviting you to count the diverse avian melodies echoing through the trees. Keep a keen eye out for the elusive platypus, a shy denizen of the river's edge, perhaps gracing you with its presence.

As you make the two-hour journey back to Sydney, pass through quaint country towns, each a testament to the rustic charm of the Australian countryside. Reflect upon the day's adventures, a symphony of natural splendour that enveloped you in its embrace, leaving you refreshed and rejuvenated by the beauty that surrounds us.
