Harbour Spectacular! Taronga Zoo to CBD – 12km Medium/Easy

**Harbour Spectacular - Taronga Zoo to CBD – 12km Easy** We start with a ferry ride from Circular Quay to **Taronga Zoo**, from where we work around to **Mosman** and **Cremorne**, stopping here and there to check out the harbour and stuff like that! We head into Kirribilli, where we stop for lunch at one of the harbour's newest parks, based at the old **Submarine Base Platypus**, which has an excellent location and a clean bathroom. **NO SHOPS AT THIS LOCATION, SO MEMBERS MUST BRING LUNCH.** After lunch we check out the very posh **Royal Sydney Yacht Squadron and** drop in on the Prime Minister at **Kirribilli House** plus the Governor General at **Admiralty House**. Before leaving Kirribilli, we stop at a hidden park for some epic pictures of the **Sydney Harbour Bridge**. Its then up onto the **Harbour Bridge deck** and walk across to the CBD. We exit the Bridge via **Cumberland Street**, to avoid the crowds in Circular Quay. We head for the newly renovated **Jacksons on George Hotel** for a beer or other beverage of your choice. **Wynyard Train Station** is 100 metres away. We should complete the walk by about 3:00PM. **Distance:** 12 km **Type of Walk:** This walk is a relaxed harbour walk. **Difficulty:** Easy/Medium.
