Women Embrace Coastal Walking - Munmorah State Conservation Area

Join us to explore Munmorah State Conservation Area on our Women Embrace Munmorah Coastal Walk! On this 9 km walk, we’ll pass through bushland heath, eucalyptus forest, over fire trails and across some of the whitest sandy pristine beaches. A big highlight is the Wybung Trig Lookout with views all the way back to Newcastle, down to Norah Head and beyond. We’ll see lots of beautiful flora and (hopefully) fauna and we might just spot a few whales with their babies while we enjoy our delicious morning tea at the beach! We hope you can join us.
