Bradleys Head to Chowder Bay walk
A Scenic Walk from Bradleys Head to Chowder Bay
Escape the city and immerse yourself in one of Sydney’s most breathtaking coastal walks. Begin your journey at Circular Quay, easily accessible by light rail or a pleasant stroll down George Street. From here, board a Taronga Zoo ferry, gliding across Sydney Harbour with stunning views before arriving at your starting point.
This spectacular bushwalk winds along the harbour headlands, from Taronga Zoo Wharf to Bradleys Head and onward to Chowder Bay – Gooree. Every step of the way, you will be treated to jaw-dropping views of Sydney’s most famous landmarks, including the Opera House and Harbour Bridge, framed perfectly against the shimmering water.
Pause at Bradleys Head – Booraghee Amphitheatre, where boats drift by in the harbour, or explore the historic military relics that offer a glimpse into Sydney’s past. Along the trail, ancient trees tower overhead, and native wildlife thrives in this untouched paradise.
For a well-deserved break, enjoy a drink at the heritage-listed Athol Hall, where you can relax with panoramic views. Alternatively, end your walk at Chowder Bay, where charming cafés and waterfront dining invite you to unwind by the sea.
From Chowder Bay, hop on Bus 111 to South Mosman Wharf, where you can enjoy a scenic return ferry trip via Cremorne Point back to Circular Quay—a perfect way to complete your Sydney adventure.
This walk is more than just a scenic route—it is a journey through history, nature, and some of the most unforgettable views Sydney has to offer.
