Our weather has been beautiful this winter – and now we’re allowed out and about with outdoor gatherings of 20. It’s the perfect time to pack a picnic hamper, some cosy blankets and enjoy these wonderful green spaces on the Northern Beaches.

Nestled among our pristine waterways and in our beautiful bushlands, these are just a few of the most idyllic spots in the area where you can pack a lunch and go exploring.
