Bushwalks
Metacalfes Walking Track
A short, easy walk that goes past Kylies Hut (where Kylie Tennant spent a fair bit of time) and through to Kylies Beach Campground. It is about 600m and a good one to take the kids on. Koalas have been seen in the trees along this walk, so remember to look up.
Forest Walking Track
An easy, 3km return, walk that traverses rainforest, open woodland, banksias, and she-oaks will line your path. The walk goes between Indian Head Campground and Diamond Head Campground.
Diamond Head Loop Walk
This 5km loop walk heads to Diamond Head Campground (through rainforest) and then back down along the coast and back into Indian Head Campground. There are amazing views of the coast from the headlands and you will pass through a good cross section of vegetation types, from heath-land, to rainforest and paper bark swamp and mahogany.
