Heathcote to Bundeena
Bandula Gonsalkorale
There are different routes to go from Heathcote to Bundeena, depending on several factors: length,
time, elevation gain, avoiding street walking, avoiding fire trails etc. The length varies from about
20km to 32 km, the longest if you start off on the Karloo Track and go to Bundeena via the Coastal
Track.
From Heathcote you could take the shorter route to Audley via shorter and easier East Heathcote
and Engadine Tracks, passing through an area with many Gymea Lilies close to Heathcote depending
on the time of year, or the longer more challenging Karloo Track that takes you past the beautiful
Karloo Pool and the ‘whaleback’ rock outcrops, named after their resemblance to whales surfacing
for air. Along the way you may also see beautiful flowers, again depending on when you go.
