Jerusalem Bay Trail | Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park | Hiking trails in Australia

(Watch in HD) Don’t forget to subscribe! 😁🥾
This hike is part of the Great North Walk taking you 13.5km from Cowan to Brooklyn through beautiful Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park (see a map of our route via the link below). The first part of the hike from Cowan down to Jerusalem Bay is beautiful but not easy. It takes you on a fairly steep descent down into the park were you end up at Cowan Creek (great spot to take a dip!). As you continue on, however, be ready for a workout as you head up the other side of the valley towards Brooklyn. This part of the hiking trail requires climbing over some big rocks and a lot of technical navigation of loose rocks. It would be a struggle for a beginner hiker.
Birdlife is plentiful the entire way. In particular, a group of Red-tailed black cockatoos can usually be spotted in the trees along the trail down by Cowan Creek. We also saw a couple Golden orb weaver spiders with large webs spanning the trail. It is also easy to stay on the hiking trail as there are red signs pointing the way along the entire route.
Enjoy!

Thanks for a lovely hike! 😊 I just realized I have a load more your videos to watch! Haha!

[@trailrhiking]

Such a beautiful walk - definitely one on my bucket list to do. I enjoy a challenge and this one is definitely a good challenge

[@trailrhiking]

Sounds great. This one is quite a challenge - it is long with many large rocks to scramble over, elevation change, and one point where some iron rebar steps are built into the rock for a 4-step climb up the rocks. Fun nonetheless but proper footwear and water is important to make it fun :)

@@trailrhiking no matter what though, I will always watch your hiking videos; it definitely inspires me to get out there and explore our national parks. I’m definitely building up (not quite there yet as I only started hiking a month or two ago and am only in the early stages of moderate) for this walk and hopefully I’ll be able to do this walk within two to three months. Hopefully you in the future can make some more hiking videos - I have thoroughly enjoyed watching your videos that you have made so far.
