Due to the Hazard reduction burns on Saturday October 17, most of North Head is temporarily closed.

This section, which falls in the final 8km of the Walk, will reopen over the coming weeks. We will keep you updated as it happens.

In the interim, we’ve included a temporary route on the B2M map in purple.

Here are some track notes to help direct you on this temporary route.

This route follows the standard B2M to Little Manly Beach and Collins Beach.

1. From the top of Collins Beach road, where it meets North Head Scenic Drive, turn left passing through the heritage archway until North Head Scenic Drive becomes Darley Road. At this point, the old Manly Hospital will be on your left.

2. Turn right up Bluefish Drive and follow this bitumen road for 300m where you’ll turn left to join the Shelly Beach to Barrack Precinct Walk, bringing you back on to the Bondi to Manly Walk.

Please contact us on contact@bonditomanly.com if you have any questions.
