George Bass Coastal Trail is an out-and-back undulating coastal track with beautiful views all the way. The trail is well-maintained and marked. Check the tides as there is a small section along the beach which can be inaccessible on an extra high (king) tide. You can either start at Punchbowl or Shelly Beach.

If you want to add a couple more k’s you can continue up the hill to Kilcundra and take a break at Kilcunda where there are public toilets, a pub and a couple of nice cafes. Or alternatively start at Kilcunda and reward yourself on return. There is ample parking at both ends.

Beautiful coast. Artisan craft and food village at Kilcundra.

Only amenities are at Kilcundra.

You’ll need to park and do out and back or have organise pickup at the other end.
