KU-RING-GAI CHASE NATIONAL PARK REVIEWS

An absolute marvel very close to Sydney and there is water for boating and fishing, trails for hikers, picnic and barbecue areas for families, playground for kids and roads for motor biking and cycling. You can spend the whole day here admiring what nature has to offer. Very happy place. Must visit.

Great place to travel in a peaceful atmosphere with a great scenic view. I really recommend it for all-day trip.

There are plenty of picnic areas - cafes, visitor centres, places to stop and take in the views from the hills.

BOUDDI NATIONAL PARK REVIEWS

Great place for adventure, long way to lookout. It is better to take it by driving a car, it is easy to reach the destination. Fresh air and enjoy the beautiful sound of waves.

Beautiful place. I recommend it for a picnic or a trip with family and friends. Very nice service at the information center.

We did the Maitland Bay track. It's an easy walk and great coastal views.

BRISBANE WATER NATIONAL PARK REVIEWS

Brisbane water is slowly becoming my favourite national park around Sydney. Beautiful Waterfalls, some nice little lookout points, and beautiful greenery that remains in excellent condition - it makes you feel as if you're the first one ever to step through the park. Can be tough walking at times but nothing too strenuous and doing part of the Great North Walk is a must

Great look out, we stayed there for an hour because of the view, is just something wonderful! Highly recommend coming here

Beautiful National Park with some awesome trails and swimming holes.
