Pros: close to Sydney (basically it’s a Sydney suburb), great walks, close to water, aboriginal engravings, Austrian Club, you can do it with kids

Cons: too close to the city (roads, noise, people) for people seeking more solitude

And below are some photos and directions of the loops we took, which started at Seaforth Oval, then following Timber Getters Track to The Bluff Track, Austrian Club to refuel, and back to the start following Engravings Trail. Overall it’s about 7km.
