Where to run in Sydney (Australia)

Centennial Park - Centennial Park, in a beautiful setting, ten minutes from Sydney's Central Business District, is perfect for running and it has a distinctive and special place in Australian history and culture.

Castle Cove - This is a bush track with some great surfaces but some rougher ones also. Starting at Sugarloaf Cres Middle Cove you can follow the track around Harold Reid Reserve through Castle Cove and North Arm Reserve to the end of the headland.

Cremorne Point - Cremorne Point offers some excellent views of the city and harbour as you run a level, and well laid path, around the point. Some of the houses and gardens you pass are also well worth checking out.

Little Sirius Cove Reserve - Known as the "bush track" to the locals, this run extends from Sirius Cove Reserve past Taronga Zoo to Clifton Gardens via Bradley's Head and Chowder Head. This route takes you through some of the fabulous Sydney Harbour National Park.

Chowder Bay - The opening of the Chowder Bay Barracks to the public along with the establishment of a trail along the ridge (George's Heights) above Chowder Bay makes this a great location to run. The Harbour views are not to be missed.

Balmoral Beach - The start and end point of all of the Norths Joggers runs, Balmoral provides a comfortable, flat run. Two full laps of the beach and the park/oval at each end will give you close to a 6 kilometers run.

Dobroyd Head - From the North end of the Spit Bridge you can run to Manly on a track which follows the harbour foreshore. You will find the quality of the surface on this route varies widely with concrete paving from North Harbour Reserve to Manly and a mix of good to rough dirt tracks, boardwalks, grass and sand.
