If you like to mix things up a bit, you can’t miss Sphinx Memorial to Bobbin Head loop track. The long walk leads along Bobbin Head trail past open forests of smooth barked apple gum and red bloodwoods to Empire Marina Bobbin Head and historic Halvorsen’s boatshed before arriving at Bobbin Head.
Kathy our host for the day will meet you at the Sphinx memorial just before 9.00am and she will be wearing a bright orange Adventurous Women Cap for easy identification.
We will also advise you of her contact number with your booking confirmation should you need to contact her.
There is parking close to the memorial but if you don't have a National Parks sticker, street parking is available just outside the park near Sir Frederick Scherger Dr.
We will pass through Bobbin Head where there are kiosks however they can be closed or extremely busy so please ensure you bring your lunch along and any snacks you would like.
