This walk is 15.4kms over about 6 hours from Stanwell Park Train Station up to the Illawarra Escarpment and a steep descent down from Sublime Point to Austinmer Train Station, for a train trip back to Stanwell Park Train Station or on to Central. The walk along the top of the Illawarra Escarpment is undulating, pleasant and quite easy with great views.
