Karloo Pools Bushwalk, Royal National Park.

The Karloo Pools bushwalk is only around 2km. It’s an excellent place to go for a swim and have a picnic lunch. This makes it ideal for going in the summer months.

Due to the walk being short its good to get the kids started on this one as there is a great reward at the end when they get to Karloo Pools. Having said that even though it’s only 2 km’s it’s difficult for children in parts so you’ll need to give them a hand. There is also a steep ledge along part of the track. So you’ll need to keep a close eye on your kids during this bit of the bushwalk.

Uloola Falls, Royal National Park

If your up for it keep going for another 2.5 km to Uloola falls. This is a really nice little spot. If there’s been a bit of rain around Uloola Falls is a great sight to see. There is also a camping ground here. Though to camp you’ll need to make a booking though the Royal National Park. The link below has information on booking campsites in the RNP:

If you keep going from Uloola falls it’s another 5km to Waterfall train station. So it’s around 10km if you want a decent bushwalk and do both Karloo Pools and Uloola Falls in one hit. From Waterfall station you can train it back to Heathcote station to your car.
