As Sydney locals we regularly challenge ourselves to find new places to explore. We’ve uncovered many hidden wonders like the Shipwreck Gardens of Homebush and Wendy’s Secret Garden but our appetite for discovery is not completely sated. That’s why the arrival of the Lonely Planet Kids Sydney City Trails book was almost serendipitous as Sunshine and I began to plot our school holiday excursions.
Lonely Planet Kids Sydney City Trails provides 19 different trails to weave you around, across, through, and within Sydney. Each trail is themed and will help you to uncover many of Sydney’s hidden wonders. On page 48 you will learn where to head to see unground stars. On page 69 you’ll learn where to go to see where Dance Academy was largely filmed. And on page 60 you’ll learn where to head to watch wild pelicans feeding (and maybe a chance to throw them a fish too!). There’s just so many things to learn about this city! There’s even a few haunted pubs listed for mum and dad!
