Manly Dam

7.3kms

Explore this quintessential trail on the Northern Beaches—tranquil, undulating, rocky, and muddy. The 7.3km loop, a favorite on the Sydney Trail Series, offers lush vegetation, wildlife, narrow trails, and surprises like waterfalls and creeks around Manly Reservoir. With 250m of elevation, it provides a city escape. While not overly muddy, rainy days can make parts boggy, so wear trail shoes and embrace a bit of dirt!

How to reach the destination?

Getting to Manly Dam without a car involves a bit of jogging, but you can take the 145 Bus from Warringah Mall, which gets you close to the King St entry.
