Hight rate 2 location for tourist in Middle Cove, NSW , Australia

Tarryn Myburgh A quiet area less known with amazing views and a real escape from the city. Some bush hikes that can go further or you can keep it short and stay in the region. Highly recommend for an adventure walk or a family picnic spot. My husband and I set up our hammocks and stayed there for hours

Lynsey Paton This is a lovely little quiet inner and outer loop walk along the harbour, our dog enjoyed it too.

Mihye Kwon A beautiful and peaceful walk. Suitable for solo walk.

Dominique Field Nice hidden away spot with picnic area up top under trees

Allan Lee Something for everybody here - if you feel energetic you can take strenuous walking options; if you dont you can park in the car park and have a gentle stroll through the bushand and enjoy the views of Fig Tree Cove. We joined the path at the Southern end on Sugarloaf Crescent (but thats because we live nearby and can walk there. Its a residential street so you can park there. too. The path is easy to follow, though there are plenty of steps. we followed the steps down to the lookout and then followed the path right round the headland to North Arm Road. There are stunning views of the water and the headlands to the north and south. Not much in the way of facilities, though - the nearest cup of coffee is a couple of kilometers away! But then you dont come here for the coffee. If youre adventurous, you can carry on from North Arm Road onto the North Arm walking track, which is another bushland/waterside track - though that is quite a long way round. And all this time, you are about 7km, as the crow flies, from the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

Elena Arena The North Arm Walking Track is a clear and easy to follow trail with some nice lookouts on Sugarloaf Bay. No drinking water on the trail

Gabi Picard Very peaceful and quiet. The track is well maintained and sign posted, and there were some decent sections of inclines. FYI no toilet facilities along the track

Stefano Bianchini Lovely two hours track with trees, rivers and Laguna views. There quite a few steps and it can get muddy when raining. The pathway is mostly narrow but you can bring your dog on leash.

Phillip Tran Where else can you escape the hustle and bustle of the city and yet feel like you are in the middle of the Blue Mountains. This trail traverses along the river, going through lush bushland. And the beauty of this? Its only 5mins from Chatswood.

Kathleen Young Another beautiful walk in the heart of Sydney. Easy enough to do and combined with the Harry Reid Foreshore track equates to about 11km to up to 13km if you want to do extra lookouts and detours. You tend to go into and out of the bush with some short street walking. The views of middle harbour are lovely.
