The Royal National Park of Sydney, Australia is location in the region of New South Wales, in the city of…Sydney.  This was the first established Park in the country, and the second in the world following the United States park, Yellowstone.  The name was changed from the original, simply National Park, after a visit during 1955 by Queen Elizabeth the II.  The park is conveniently located close to the city, easily accessible to the locals as well as the international tourists staying in the five star hotels.  Sydney is the perfect city to relax in as there are many activities to take part in as well as many locations, such as the Park that located withing a short distance to the center of the action.

When one wants to escape the hustle and bustle, the National Park is the best spot, as the walking and hiking trails are numerous and offer something for every level of fitness buff and outdoor explorer.  There are ten different walks, that make up more than one hundred and fifty miles of trails and hikes.  The times also very, from the short little breath of a thirty minute walk to two day treks through the rain-forest jungles.  Weather conditions should always be checked on the day one sets out, and maps, maps are a very good addition to ones pack, especially on the longer hikes.

One of the shorter walks offers those with just a few minutes to spare, stunning views and lush landscapes is the Bungoona Track.  One will see views of the Hacking River and of the entire park, on this short thirty minute excursion.  If one is looking for a bit more of a work out and has the time, the five hour walk on the Palm Jungle Loop Track will serve that purpose.  This is a longer hike, rated on the upper end of the scale of difficulty.  However this excursion will offer one with the panoramic, expansive views of the entire coast of New South Wales.  One can choose at this point to continue on through the wooded forests, or to another stunning platform titled the Otford Lookout.
