About the Walking Track

A short walk runs to The Bluff where you retrace your steps to follow the Natural Arch Track and Magazine Track down the western side of Bantry Bay past the old Explosives Depot to Flat Rock Creek. The track then contours above Middle Harbour to Roseville Bridge.
This walk is a succession of stunning harbour scenery from the Bluff with its sensational views down Bantry Bay to Middle Harbour to Flat Rock Cascades and the glorious views across Middle Harbour to Castle Cove. Along the way you will admire the Natural Arch and the old Explosives Depot with its beautiful sandstone magazines.
