The Clover Hill Trail combines an easy walk along an old forestry road, followed by a challenging scramble through rainforest. It passes four waterfalls and some nice swimming holes.
The Maddens Falls Walk in Dhawaral National Park is an easy walk to an impressive waterfall. You can continue off-track to reach the base of the falls (a more challenging bushwalk).
The Illawarra Escarpment Track between Stanwell Park and Austinmer follows the top of the escarpment, with multiple lookouts providing spectacular views up and down the coast. There’s even a cafe at Sublime Point, just before the steep descent at the end of the walk, where you can enjoy a coffee or a cold drink!
Drawing Room Rocks is a natural rock feature near Berry on the edge of the Illawarra escarpment, offering extensive views over Kangaroo Valley and Berry.
Figure Eight Pool in the Royal National Park is popular natural rock formation. One of the access routes is a steep track down from Garrawarra Farm.
The Curra Moors Loop is an alternative to doing the full Royal National Park Coast Walk. The circular walk is a shorter option that takes in some of the spectacular coastal scenery.
