Women Embrace Hiking - Bouddi Coastal Walking Track

About the Hike: 

This is one of the longer walks in the Bouddi National Park and it is rich in scenery. The walk follows the coastline with many side trips to lookouts, beaches and even a shipwreck. Walking from Little Beach to Putty Beach, we stop for some morning tea along the way. Boasting beaches, boardwalks and birdlife, it’s known as one of the most beautiful central coast walks. This easy to moderate hike is characterised by sweeping views, shady rainforest and inviting picnic spots. There’s a photo opportunity around every corner on Bouddi coastal walk. Bouddi National Park is the perfect place to enjoy the great outdoors and we hope you can join us.
