Woohoo! The awesome new Southern Headlands Walk between Narrawallee and Burrill Lake is here and waiting for you! Get ready to explore some seriously stunning scenery – think gorgeous beaches, vibrant wildflowers, and plenty of places to grab a coffee or even stay the night. This 20km (one-way) adventure stretches from Narrawallee Inlet all the way to Blackburn Head at Burrill Lake, linking up 10 beautiful beaches, chilled-out neighbourhoods, trendy cafes, and breathtaking headland walks. Keep an eye out for the Banksia symbols on the trail markers – they’ll show you the way!

Highlights of the new walk include:

• Ten of the Shoalhaven’s best beaches (Narrawallee, Jones, Mollymook, Golf Course Reef, Collers, Ulladulla Harbour, Corcoran Cove (The Bommie), Rennies, Racecourse and Burrill.
• Existing walks include One Track for All, Gari Bagan, Coomee Nulunga Cultural Walk, Narrawallee Foreshore Walk, and the South Pacific Heathland Walk
• Areas of Bangalay Sand Forest (an endangered ecological community)
• Fossils that are 270-million-year-old, near Ulladulla Harbour
• Migrating whales, playful dolphins and endangered birds along the way
• Two Holiday Haven Tourist parks (Ulladulla and Burrill Lake)
• Shops, cafes, public toilets and picnic areas.

Those taking on the entire 20km walk are advised to do a ‘car shuffle’ – dropping one car at the end of the walk and a second car driving walkers back to the start. Alternatively, short sections of the walk can be done easily by families or visitors who want to experience snapshots of the area, such as the walking trails and look-out at Ulladulla lighthouse.

Walks incorporated into the 20km length include: the northern Ulladulla Headland (One Track for All); Warden Head (Coomee Nulunga walk), and steps at Blackburn Head, Burrill Lake. 

The Southern Headlands Walk supplements other popular walks on the south coast including the nearby Pigeon House Mountain Didthul walking track in Morton National Park, the Murramarang South Coast Walk starting at Pretty Beach, and further south, the Light to Light walk in Beowa National Park.
