Join Sydney Harbour Federation Trust as they take you through two fortifications dating back to the 1870s, one of which has rarely been open to the public. Hear about the role this commanding harbour location played in the defence of Sydney during World War II. In addition to historic and underground fortifications with gun emplacements protecting the harbour, you will also walk through beautiful bushland with magnificent harbour views, which now hosts artists, cafes, restaurants and businesses, with plenty of open space to explore.
Advance bookings essential.
