Information

This long (9.6km return) and easy (Grade 3) walk along the ridgelines boasts some of the best views in Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park. A spectacular walk in spring, the wildflowers make for excellent birdwatching.
Bairne walking track starts from West Head Road, passing through heathlands of banksia, boronia and grevillea. Look for nectar-loving yellow-faced honeyeaters and the vibrant variegated wren. After around 2.5km, you'll reach an intersection. Head south for 1km to Towlers Bay lookout, for magnificent views of Towlers Bay and Pittwater.
Return to the intersection and follow Soldiers Point track around 1.3km to the lookout, where you'll have a brilliant view of The Basin and northern Pittwater. Choose a spot and unpack a hamper for a leisurely bush picnic, before heading back to your start point.
