Reviews
"A truly beautiful peaceful place. With so many different walk ways you can visit many different times and see something new. It's completely free and managed/ made by volunteers..... truly impressive. Definitely worth a stop, as there are wonderful plants and sculptures everywhere."
"Lovely large garden to wander around. Unfortunately the bush walk was very wet when we visited and the track has suffered from the heavy rain recently but the rest of the garden has well formed paths and is easy to get around. No shop there, so you can't get a coffee, but there is a drinking fountain"
"Beautiful place. Moderate to steep trail. Admiration for people who volunteered to make it so beautiful. Amazing place to chill in nature. Walking trail not suitable for pre-school children."
"Lot's to explore, we started off on the main track, but soon started exploring the numerous separate path's and area's. It wasn't quite the best time of year for some of the flower's. Very nice views higher up of Taronga and the Mount in the distance. Plenty of benches everywhere for you to sit, relax and enjoy the scenery. You could easily spend a couple of hours here, just walking the main circular track will take you 45 minutes."
