Bobbin Head

Natural Attractions

Located in the west of Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park, Bobbin Head is a large area offering lots of attractions and facilities. As well as being a great place to bushwalk, paddle or go fishing, Bobbin Head is the perfect waterfront picnic spot.

The area features barbecues, picnic tables, shelters and plenty of green space for an impromptu frisbee session or a spot of cricket. There’s also a children’s playground that’s sure to be a hit with kids and you can pick up a coffee at the Bobbin Head Inn Caf or tuck into some contemporary Australian cuisine at Waterside Bistro.

Visit Empire Marina Bobbin Head to enjoy a coffee or leisurely meal by the water, or follow any of the number of walking tracks and collect maps and brochures from Bobbin Head Visitor Centre. Stroll the mangrove boardwalk behind the picnic area and see if you can spot some of the park’s many birds.

You can also learn more about connecting to Country at Bobbin Head through video stories which share our Aboriginal cultural heritage and the importance of protecting the natural environment in Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park.
