Easy Hikes Sydney

From Sterling Fitness Hiking Adventures

*Okay team... Mother Nature and her rain said "NO" today yet we still had a laugh, drink, and another drink. So? We try again, as this hike / bar is too good to miss out on...* We looooove our Sydney trails that treat us to **secret beaches**. We love finishing our events at **secret bars you’d never find**! What about an event… a **stunning hike that finishes at a** **secret beach bar** **with a band** that starts at 4pm bringing us right into a glorious sunset? On August 30, we did this hike but from the other way… Palm Beach down to Bilgola, and let me say this… **SUNDAY SIPPERS AT BILGOLA SLSC IS ONE OF THE COOLEST LITTLE BARS IN ALL OF SYDNEY!!!** It’s RIGHT on the beach. It’s only open once a month. **This bar is unforgettable (burger, beer pic is from Bilgola SLSC). Don’t miss this HIKE!** **THE HIKE. Narrabeen Beach to Bilgola Beach - 13.5kms.** We'll meet at the bus stop in North Narrabeen ([CLICK HERE for exact point where 199 bus drops)](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Northern+Beaches+Community+College,+Pittwater+Rd/@-33.7022113,151.2985563,18.82z/data=!4m15!1m8!3m7!1s0x6b0d550541a46f25:0x5017d681632c2f0!2sNarrabeen+NSW+2101!3b1!8m2!3d-33.7222735!4d151.2984024!16zL20vMDM4eDgz!3m5!1s0x6b0d54e1517e958b:0x284ff3157c081ca9!8m2!3d-33.702148!4d151.298203!16s%2Fg%2F11gzdz06t?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDgyNi4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D) \- we'll discuss it in the [whatsapp chat too](https://chat.whatsapp.com/FXMgLB7M7Rp7jH6ol6nf8g)). The 199 bus stop is there, then we'll cross the road and check out the rockpool then head into **Narrabeen Headland** which gives the most spectacular views south. Onward we go to **Turimetta Beach** (10/10 breathtaking) and **Lookout**… to the **Turimetta Headland Reserve, Warriewood Lookout & Blowhole**, **Warriewood Beach (again gorgeous), then to Mona Vale Beach (voted 6th best in the world, Conde Naste)**… North of that? **Basin Beach. Bungan Beach**.... these two are truly beautiful. We'll climb out of Bungan then head to **Newport Beach...** around the headland is **Bilgola Beach**, and we'll descend down some lovely stairs right onto the sand where **Bilgola SLSC** lies. *(Edit: Apologies in advance. This hike will get FULL. I have to let those that have been on many hikes in on seniority.)* **13.5kms in total**. Beach walk. Inclines. And all the rest. Fitness required for this one. The **B1 bus / 199 bus are our friends all day to start, get home, and even provide some outs if you want to stop hiking and meet us at the pub.** If you parked your car at the start (there is free parking but DIY research) it's super easy to bus back south. Post-pub the 199 bus is literally up the stairs from Bilgola and runs every 10minutes. We'll arrive at the pub about 320pm (330pm opens)... I get it. It's Sunday. If you want to leave? That's okay. One drink. Stay longer? All options are open... See you for one of my favourite Sydney hikes and definitely my favourite (new) secret bar!

Over the past 3 years, I hope I’ve earned your trust when I say things like: a) *“You are going to looooove this bar”;* and b) *“Wow. This hike is a secret gem you’ve gotta try.”* *Well, this hike … is a really, really cool session all hikers in this group should experience.* **THE HIKE. Artarmon Station to Spit Bridge** At first, I didn’t know what to hike to plan, so I went on my hike-map creator app and just started connecting dots from Artarmon Station… east… via this creek. Via that park. Via this neighbourhood. And onward down to Middle Harbour which then linked to Spit Bridge. Looked like a nice 12kms through the middle of Sydney, but who knows eh? Then we hiked it. 28 of us hiked it on 11 October, and not one hiker had done the entire journey prior to. At the end? ***“WOW what a great, beautiful hike / never seen this pretty side of Sydney”*** echoed throughout. It’s truly a sneaky gem of a session – we were all surprised at the beauty from start to finish. [(TEAM: AFTER YOU HIT ATTEND, COME BACK HERE AND CLICK ON THIS LINK TO JOIN OUR WHATSAPP GROUP.

CAVES BEACH, GHOSTIES BEACH… Central Coast Coastal Adventure!!!

Sat, Nov 7, 8:30 PM

During my 3 Years of hosting **We Hike to the Bar** there's been quite a few jaw-dropping moments of scenery... **Ghosties Beach** and its caves is most likely the top moment of 2026. Legend Hiker Heidi (90+ hikes) and a few others mentioned some Newcastle hikes, and while researching - I just can't find a lot. If you have some suggestions, please send them to me. What did I find is a tad closer to Sydney, and this will be a gem of a 15kms coastal journey... **GHOSTIES BEACH - CAVES BEACH - SWANSEA HEADS** Low tide is 230pm (essential for Ghosties Beach caves), so here's how we'll hike **Swansea (north) to Catherine Hill Bay for lunch (cars parked here)... then finish with the short and beautiful Ghosties Beach Cave loop!** From AI (sorry, I hate using it), the highlights: * **Ghosties Beach Sea Cave:** A massive, dramatic rock tunnel and sea cave system located at the southern end of Ghosties Beach. (Note: It must be explored strictly during **low tide** for safe access). * **Pink Caves:** Vibrant, naturally pink-hued rock formations and coastal sea caves near Catherine Hill Bay. * **Scenic Coastline & Beaches:** Sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean and passes past several picturesque spots including Pinney Beach, Catherine Hill Bay, and Moonee Beach. * **Vantage Points:** Elevated headland views looking up and down the New South Wales coastline. We'll need drivers. Of course! We love you. I think good pick up points are Parramatta, Wolli Creek, and Chatswood. It's a 1hrs 20min drive from Chatswood. We'll start with those 3 locations and work from there. **Catherine Hill Bay Hotel "The Catho"** is a heritage-listed (from 1875) joint with really good food... as soon as you look at this pub, you won't forget it. It's a classic, and there's nothing like it. This looks to be a great day out... See you soon. MJ **THE LOGISTICS.** a) Gratuity $15 Cash or PayID on the day. b) Drivers, you'll be compensated by your riders. Thank you! c) Last minute Cancels and No Shows... *I'm not even going to say it.* d) Have a backpack filled with... well, you know all this shit by now. Make a list. Be safe.
