Top Walks in New South Wales
Author: Ken Eastwood
Publisher: Hardie Grant Publishing
ISBN: 1742739156
Category : Travel
Languages : en
Pages : 345
Book Description
New South Wales offers some of the best bushwalks in Australia, with fascinating natural and man-made treasures hidden along its tracks and trails. There are World Heritage–listed rainforests, convict relics, colonies of wombats, the largest area of movable sand on the east coast and a mountain that has been burning for 6000 years. There are walks to snow-covered mountains, through volcanic landscapes and to remote beaches that few people visit. How does this guidebook differ from the rest? Experienced travel writer Ken Eastwood has completed every track and reminds us that bushwalking is an activity for almost anyone. Most of the tracks covered can be completed in a few hours, but there are some tougher multi-day walks for those wanting a greater challenge. For each walk, there is detailed trail information, a map and photographs of what you’ll see along the way.
