Why this Hike

This hidden gem of a hike near Cape Paterson at Harmers Haven is a great half day adventure for hikers of all abilities. It includes lush coastal tea tree woodlands, singing birds and the beautiful rock hopping at Cutlers Beach. The hike remains almost entirely flat and easy to navigate making it perfect for hikers of all levels and abilities.

Track Notes & Overview

Starting from the carpark at the end of Viminaria Road in Harmers Haven the hike follows the track along the fence line and through the tea tree woodland towards Cutlers Beach. Passing by a bench in memory of naturalist Sherry Collins will mark the about the halfway point to the beach and continuing to walk you will reach the rocky and rough Cutlers Beach. After enjoying the coast and having had a break you can walk back along the same track back to the starting point of the hike. The hike is very easy to navigate and once you are on the path from the start of the carpark and you will find the flat undulating track very easy to traverse.
