• Bring enough water for the day. You can top up your reusable water bottle at the Villages along the course.  
• Stay SunSmart and bring sunscreen, SunSmart clothing, sunnies and a hat.
• Wear comfy shoes you know you can walk far in.
• Bring easy energy boosting snacks such as bananas and mixed nuts. You will also be able to grab a bite to eat and enjoy the entertainment at each of the Villages along the course. 
• Remember to take breaks, especially if you are walking the whole course. 

Please also look out for other people on the course route. Please keep to the left to allow others to pass.

In some cases, there are different ways of navigating through areas of the course which may be slightly shorter than the mapped 7 Bridges Walk route. The 7 Bridges Walk route has been mapped out to provide participants with a safe pedestrian route through all areas whilst seeing some of the best parts of Sydney Harbour. There are decision points along the course giving participants different walking options in some areas. One route may be slightly shorter and more or less accessible.

In organising the 7 Bridges Walk we have made every effort to ensure the course is as accessible as possible. Unfortunately, due to the nature of some of the terrain, it is difficult to make the course completely accessible for everyone.

Areas to consider include:

• Access from Sydney Harbour Bridge to the south (onto Cumberland Street, The Rocks) (stairs)
• Access to Rozelle Village (moderate descending hill through Callan Park)
• Access from Gladesville Bridge to the west (stairs)
• Access from Fig Tree Bridge (stairs), then onto a steep hill
  • For your accessible route, continue along Burns Bay Road from Fig Tree Bridge for 400 metres. When you reach the T-intersection of View Street and Burns Bay Road, using the pedestrian crossing and pedestrian lights, cross Burns Bay Road to Bus Stop 5C. From here you will travel clockwise, via bus, to Bus Stop 4C where you will follow course signs to re-join the course
• Riverview Road and Greenwich Road
  • For your accessible route, continue along River Road for 500m, at the cross intersection, turn right down Greenwich Road, travel for 200m. Following course signs to re-join the course at Greendale Street
• Access to Gore Creek Reserve from the west (steep and uneven stairs down to bush track)
• Access to Tambourine Bay Reserve from the west (bush track)
• Burns Bay Road and Carr Street
  • For your accessible route, turn right at the roundabout of Bay Road and Carr Street, travelling 100m down Bay Road. Turning right down Railway Parade (adjacent to Crows Nest Road.) Travelling through the Wakelin Reserve will lead you to re-join the course on Carr Street

Please refer to the Course Map for the location of stairs and inclines around the course.

The north side of the course from Hunters Hill Village through to Milsons Point Village is a Medium Grade Walk and includes several hills/steep inclines.

Please enquire at the Information Tent at each Village for more information as you make your way around the course.

We suggest that participants who wish to use a stroller/pram or are in a wheelchair, have someone to assist them through their journey and investigate the various areas of the course where they would like to travel.

There are five decision points along the way where the course splits and you can choose which path to take.
