Spectacular views of Newcastle and its beaches. Brilliant design; from just a hill it has been transformed into a regular walking trek while giving a great tribute to the Australian WW1 diggers! Not to be missed..

We walked this together in January. The views were gorgeous and the history was interesting. There were 2 signs we couldn't find but still a great, easy walk.

Lotsa good memories of the spit, beach, lighthouse and views of both beach side and harbour side, including tug boats pulling huge tankers out to sea.... And whales to top it off
5. Fernleigh Track
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 64 reviews
Reviewed By Traveller_oversea - Sydney, Australia
A highly enjoyable 30km bike ride (15km each way) encompassing attractive bush and wetlands; and imbued by the history of the Adamstown-Belmont coal train line. The Track is well constructed for both cycling and walking; and well-maintained for safe cycling. The gradients are gentle as befits an old train line, the 191 metre rail tunnel is a novelty, and the ride was well-shaded within bushscape for much of the way. I grew up in the area and the historical information boards were very informative. I also recommend the Fernleigh Cafe in Adamstown for reviving after the ride.
6. Mount Sugarloaf

This is such a beautiful place not far from Newcastle and Maitland. We've visited many times. There are walking tracks with some amazing lookouts, as well as 4WD tracks that lead to some great little spots to explore. The kids love going bushwalking at Mount Sugarloaf, and being so close, we can make it a regular visit. Beautiful spot!
