88 Tunks Park


Tunks Park - a pretty park, bound on both sides by bush with Long Bay at one end and the wonderful Northbridge suspension bridge at the other.   The Park is perfect for people and their dogs, for children, for sport, for old men taking a quiet stroll down to the rocks next to the creek (as we saw), for a lone young fella doing Tai Chi, for  elderly couples with thermos flasks, for Lycra jogger gals, for people with boats.  Something there for everyone really.  A nice peaceful place to visit though probably  not quite the same on sports days.  Still, there is enough space all around while down next to the creek it is quietly beautiful as well as peaceful.

An important point for us with regard to this walk is that it is the middle link walk between the Artarmon to Middle Harbour Walk track and the Wreck Bay/Long Bay Walking track.   This time we actually walked back to the creek crossing steps which we crossed on a memorable rainy day way back in 2012!  We also climbed the narrowest gap of steps which led to the Northbridge Golf course at the opposite side of the park  hence ensuring that we had covered all of the distance from Artarmon to Dorset Road, Northbridge.
