Moderate track
Starting from Slade Avenue, Lindfield, this circuit walk takes you along Gordon, Middle Harbour and Moores Creeks mostly via the Two Creeks Track, visiting many little waterfalls along the way. Expect a serene walk along multiple streams where you’ll be accompanied by birdsong and the sound of burbling water throughout the track. From sandstone overhangs to couch-like stone seats and little waterfalls, this walk features many points of interest. The tracks are mostly shaded and well-signposted. Remember to lift your head up every once in a while to catch different angles of the picturesque creeks. Keep in mind that dogs are not allowed on this track. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
