Women Embrace Hiking - Pearl Beach NSW

About the Hike: 

Join us as we walk from beautiful Pearl Beach to Patonga and back again - about a 10km round trip. This walk explores a section of Brisbane Water National Park between the villages of Pearl Beach and Patonga. A moderately challenging day walk through red gums and eucalypts takes in stunning views and with the ocean in all directions.  Along the fire trails and walking tracks we will pass sandstone caves with a natural hanging garden of native ferns, we will take some time to stop and enjoy the spectacular Warrah lookout with views of Hawkesbury River. Once we return to Pearl beach take some time to walk along the beautiful Pearl beach while your WEA hosts prepare a delicious, fresh healthy lunch for you.
