ROYAL COAST WALK PHOTOGRAPHS


The following photographs are taken from several trips along the Royal Coast Track commencing from 2006. Considering this walk is put on almost annually I felt having a Royal Coast Walk Gallery would be more pleasing to the eye than including them with the older write-ups from the walk. Return to Wombats Home Page to read the 2000 and 2001 trip reports. More photographs will be added as more walks are completed.

The colours and shapes of the sandstone on the cliff tops near Little Marley are magnificent

View of Marley Head to the north and the Washing Machine below the cliffs of Providential Head

The weathered rock formations are amazing, these, near Little Marley Beach resemble the snouts of sharks and as such I've come to name them 'Shark Rocks'

On the last stretch of track before arriving at Bundeena we come across these magnificent white rock formations we've come to name 'The Ice Cream Cake'
