Fairfax Walk
Greater Sydney
Menu
The Fairfax walk offers superb views and an enjoyable, gentle walk. This short paved track starts at the end of North Head Scenic Drive and then loops around the top of North Head.
Its circuit connects three lookouts which provide the kinds of views you see on Sydney postcards. Look out over endless ocean or across the harbour to the CBD.
The Fairfax walk is ideal for families with children and is partially wheelchair accessible. It’s also an exceptional walk for whale watchers during the June–July and August–October migration seasons.
If you’ve still got energy to burn after completing the Fairfax walk, you can continue on through North Head Sanctuary. From there, just wind your way back down to Manly and join the Manly Scenic Walkway or take the Bluefish track to Shelley Beach.
Getting there
The Fairfax Walk starts at the North Head precinct of Sydney Harbour National Park.
To get there, take Sydney Road to Manly, then take Davley Road onto North Head Scenic Drive.
Bus 135 take you to the trail head every hour. (as of 2024)
