I've lived in Sydney 50 years and know all of these great places.... thanks for reminding me how lucky we are because it is too easy to forget and get trapped in everyday life and forget what is so close if you just get off your bum and go.

So lovely to live😊

[@klayactive4704]

Loved this video format. You seem like a super fun person to go hiking with!

[@peterbreis5407]

I'm from Sydney and I didn't know most of these.

[@hamishmccracken9881]

Loved this! I'll be checking these spots out. Thanks.

[@Chelsearosebeauty]

I’m definitely going to have to go to some of these places soon!

[@InternationalFoodieGuide]

Sydney is so beautiful 👍🙂 thanks for showing nice places

[@gabrieldenoury5863]

You could get to Kuringai National Park by public transport by catching a bus to Palm Beach then jumping on the ferry for a 10min ride to the Basin. A long journey, but doable.

[@TerrysFilms]

Good call out. 👍 The Basin has excellent camping and is well worth a visit.

I can't believe all of this is in Sydney. My sister has been living there 20 years, never goes out.

Hi, have you walked the six foot track? Cheers

[@TerrysFilms]

In the Blue Mountains? If so, it’s a long but relatively easy hike with an eco lodge to stay overnight on the route. Well worth doing

[@niharjadhav3527]
