Took a walk today to the Barrenjoey Lighthouse. Suggest to park your car at “Station Beach” and walk along the beach. The walk is around 10 minutes from carpark to the signboard before a 35 minutes return to the lighthouse. It was quite steep but doable for most ages. Overall, a good walk! Highly recommended!

You have two choices of route to get up and down. One is steeper and faster(stairs) and another is longer and more mellow/ no stairs . They have a sign to tell u which is easy to navigate. There’s spots and views along to way to stop and check out and it’s such a peaceful nice view esp sunset time. It gets quite cold up there during the late arvo . Recommend to bring some snacks when u reach the top

This is a beautiful view of Palm beach. Don't miss it!I recommend the easier way up and the steeper (shorter) way down. The easy path is an 800m, 15 minutes walk. The steep, harder path is 400m, 10 minutes of all steps.

Beautiful walk up to the lighthouse - spectacular views and many “instagram” moments. The “Smuggler’s Track” that veers to the right at the bottom is quite steep and full on steps, while it is easier and less inclined on the “access track” (that looks like vehicles can actually drive up). You can do a round trip walking up one and down the other. Awesome day out for families, friends or couples, or just to have some “me time”.

One of the best views in Sydney. The easiest climb has no steps and is 800 meters.

This is one of my favorite place, nice and romantic walk around the beach then you have to do a bit exercise by climbing the mountain along the track walk. For just 15-20 minutes walk then you can reach the Lighthouse.

The Grade 2 route is the best for kids. AWESOME view up there. You can see the whole beach. Its like you are in paradise. Spend a bit of time with my wife and kids . Highly recommended

It's not such an easy walk but well worth the effort. Path starts on the west (inland) size of the headland. And up you go. The path is stone paved and in good condition. Spectacular views from the top. Don't forget to visit the grave of the first lighthouse keeper, George Mulhall. George was Australian born in 1811. He was appointed as lighthouse keeper at Barrenjoey in 1881. Legend has it he died by a lightning strike in 1885, but it was a stroke that did him in. Say hi" to George on the other side (east) of the lighthouse

A nice hike and breathtaking views from the top. You have two options to climb. One is to take the stairs (steep) the other is to take the ramp. We took the ramp as to climb up as we were with two young children and took the stairs to climb down. Stop over at whale beach and ferry wharf and a few other beaches to spend your day.
