Walumarra Track, Palona cave and Forest Path

Vera Segoh

Walumarra Track stretches from Sir Bertram Drive all the way to Lady Carrington Drive for 4.2 Km.
You can start exploring the track from either Walumarra Fire Trail along Sir Bertram Drive (around
1km before Curra Moor car park if you drive from Audley) or from the other end, where Sir Bertram
Drive intersects with Lady Carrington Drive.

Walumarra Track doesn’t have sweeping ocean views like the Royal National Coastal walk from
Otford to Bundeena, but it’s home to a vast variety of flora ranging in size from the minute
Hygrocybe species fungi, some of them are no bigger that a pinhead, to the giant Australian Red
Cedar. If you do your walk in March or April, this place is full of all sorts of fungi.
