A free guided family bush walk around Berry Island Reserve in Wollstonecraft — coastal headland scenery, Aboriginal engravings, native wildlife and stunning harbour views.
Berry Island Reserve, Balls Head Road, Wollstonecraft NSW 2065
About this activity
Berry Island Reserve is a hidden gem in inner-north Sydney — a beautiful coastal headland with bush trails, Aboriginal rock engravings, and sweeping views across the harbour towards the city. North Sydney Council runs free guided family walks here during school holidays.
The walk on Tuesday 14 April is perfect for families with kids who love the outdoors. The track is manageable for children aged 5+, and the guide brings the landscape to life with stories about Aboriginal history, native plants and local wildlife. BYO water and snacks — the views at the top make a perfect picnic spot.
Families can look forward to:
- Free guided walk with a North Sydney Council ranger or naturalist
- Aboriginal rock art engravings dating back thousands of years
- Native bush — spotting banksias, angophoras and local bird species
- Panoramic Sydney Harbour views from the headland
- Suitable for kids aged 5+ with a moderate 2km trail
- Easy access from Wollstonecraft station — no car needed
