Nature & parks in Sydney

Sydney might be a huge metropolis (five million people and counting), but you’re never very far away from nature here. Our beaches and harbour are watery wonderlands in themselves, but the city also possesses endless pockets of green – from urban oases like Centennial Park and the Royal Botanic Garden to untouched wilderness on the city fringes like Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park to the north and Royal National Park in the south. Dive, or walk, right in.
