Mrs Macquarie’s Chair

Friday 29th June

Turned out to be a lovely day for a very pleasant walk through the Domain then around the harbour shoreline past Mrs Macquaries Chair and the Opera House.


At the completion of the walk the group had a relaxed lunch at Circular Quay before strolling to Martin Place Station for the return journey to Dapto.

Why not join us for our next walk on the 13th July?

29th June - Domain & Harbour Walk

The walking group will be taking the walk from Martin Place via the Domain, Mrs Macquaries Chair and the Opera House to Circular Quay where we will have lunch.

After lunch the group will walk back to Martin Place to catch the train back to Dapto.

The weather is looking pretty good for Friday.
