Balgowlah Heights - Home of the Manly to Spit Bridge Walk

Balgowlah Heights is the name given to the area South of Balgowlah which extends to Dobroyd Head. The land rises South, culminating in the mass of Dobroyd Head, with views from the Arabanoo and Crater Cove looking out over Sydney heads.

Balgowlah Heights is the home of the Sydney Harbour National park, the Arabanoo Lookout (above), Dobroyd Head, Washaway Beach and Grotto point, Tania Park, North Harbour Reserve and Forty Baskets Beach….and is the home to the Manly to Spit walk. Top attractions along this walk are the tidal pool in Fairlight, the very swimmable Clontarf Beach, Reef Beach, Crater Cove, whale watching during the migration season, Grotto Point Lighthouse and the Spit Bridge.

The official Spit to Manly track passes through Dobroyd Head.

Situated on a ridge up to 80 metres above North Harbour and Middle Harbour, some houses have panoramic views of the harbour, Eastern Suburbs and Spit Bridge. The suburb features Sydney Harbour bushland, contained in the National Park around Dobroyd Head and Grotto Point. Tania Park at the eastern fringe offers relaxed recreation and one can watch the Manly ferry cut its way to Circular Quay.

The North Harbour Reserve on Condamine Street, south of the shopping centre, is a popular picnic spot for large groups. The reserve is also on the scenic walk that runs from Manly through Fairlight, Balgowlah, Balgowlah Heights and Clontarf to The Spit, near the Spit Bridge.
