Beginner/Welcome Hike – Bundeena to Little Marley

Calling all hikers and new members,

We thought We’d start off this term’s hiking calendar with a beautiful hike along the coast through the Royal National Park from Bundeena to Little Marley beach. This hike is an 11km there and back hike with relatively flat terrain and some amazing cliffside views, passing by the famous wedding cake rock and having lunch by the tranquil(not really) waters of Big or Little Marley Beaches.
