Women's Karloo Pools Day Hike

Here s your chance to enjoy escapism from your lounge room and return to creeks, wildlife and waterfalls.

From the moment you open your car door you hear, before you see. Women chatting. Laughing. Introductions.

Your nerves dwindle. This isn t so scary.

And it isn t.

Women Want Adventure is guiding you on the Karloo Pools Track in Heathcote National Park. A hike that has it all. So close to Sydney, it s a wonderfully convenient way to get outdoors and meet like-minded women.

Immerse yourself in scenic waterfalls and luscious bushland on this 10km return trail.

This moderate to hard graded walk leads from Heathcote train station to the scenic Uloola Falls. There are some steps, so bring your hiking poles for extra support.

At Karloo Pools, you ll enjoy a relaxing morning tea prepared by your guide. After a short break, we continue hiking to Uloola Falls. Get out your camera, another stunning waterfall before returning to Heathcote.
