Jerusalem Bay Bushwalk, Cowan

All guided bushwalks are for Hornsby Shire residents only.

From the railway to the river, this rewarding four-hour (6 km), moderately challenging to challenging return bushwalk takes us down to the picturesque Jerusalem Bay on Cowan Creek.

We descend through different vegetation communities and on the way examine evidence of the Aboriginal occupation and use of the area. We then meander along the banks of the bay and reflect on its Aboriginal and historic heritage. After admiring the million-dollar views, we slowly meander back up to Cowan Train Station, admiring the unique and rare plants and animals along the way.
