ACCESSIBLE COURSE

Accessibility

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/sleep 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.
