70 Dobroyd Head, Tania Park, Arabanoo Lookout


Dobroyd Head -  
After parking alongside  Tania Park on Dobroyd Scenic Drive we ambled over to Arabanoo Lookout for truly spectacular views to Sydney, Middle and North Harbours.   Glorious sunny weather was a gift as we wandered down, down the walking track  towards the famous Spit to Manly Walk.   Moira was somewhat astonished to discover that yes, indeed, she had been down there once before when we had walked along that Spit/Manly Track which we joined. Further down were a couple more viewing platforms looking down Dobroyd Head and looking out to North and South Heads and the Tasman Sea taking up the backdrop. The whole of this area affords wonderful views stretching far and wide.  We were so fortunate to have bright blue skies with brush stroke clouds to complete the beautiful Sydney scene.
En route Linzi pointed out the sneaky hidden turn-off to the fisherman shacks which were built from the 1920s onwards now maintained for heritage purposes.  Unless people knew about the shacks few would notice them tucked on the edge of  the Cove.
Once again we were delighted to have Linzi join us from N.Z.  She had carefully planned a late flight back tonight in order to accommodate the Walk today.Wonderful.

For the third time we headed to Belaroma Coffee Centre, Kenneth Street, Manly Vale .

Walkers:  Linzi, Kate, Moira,Pippa, Donna, Carolle
