Backpacking: Operating from Sydney
When you’re backpacking adventure takes you to New South Wales, your only major challenge will be picking from the hundreds of things to do. In Sydney, itself, we recommend The Rocks, located in the harbourside quarter, to explore the rich history of the convicts. Or, walk the native bushland of Manly Island, which you can travel to by ferry. Make Sydney your base of operation and you’ll find two highways out of the city. Take the Pacific Highway north to find beautiful beaches and lively coastal towns. Heading south out of the city via the Princes Highway, you will be able to explore quieter coastal areas. The world famous Sydney opera house should make your list of must-see attractions. As well, we think you’ll enjoy the Blue Mountain National Park. More like a large plateau, the “blue” comes from the haze coming from the eucalyptus trees.
Eventually, you will need to find a place to unload your gear and your treasures and just relax. Hostels in Sydney are everywhere. Ask backpackers about great hostels in Sydney and you will hear about us at the Jolly Swagman Hostel.
