In 1879, it became the second national park in Australia and is the historic site where the term 'National Park' was first used.

Spend a day encountering the true nature of Australia as you walk through forests that hold traces of nature and culture formed over millions of years. It is a single day, but one that will leave you with unforgettable impressions.

Sublime Point and Bulli Lookout are essential stops on any Wollongong trip. They boast fantastic views where the endless blue sea meets the city of Wollongong.
