Walkabout - Royal National Park The Royal National Park lies 36 km to the south of Sydney and spreads from the sun-kissed beaches of Wattamolla and Garie, through the coastal wilderness to the quiet waters of the Hacking River and on to the windswept low open woodlands on the western edges of the park. The park was converted from a National Park to a 'Royal' National Park (a change which seemed very important at the time) after Queen Elizabeth II travelled through the park on her way to Wollongong in 1954. The Royal National Park has a series of camping areas but people intending to stay overnight MUST enquire at the Royal National Park Visitor's Centre, Farnell Ave, Audley (it is near the gates at the northern road entrance to the Park) - tel: (02) 9542 0648. www.walkabout.com.au /locations/NSWRoyalNationalPark.shtml   (1961 words)
