Why locals recommend it

You can’t come to Sydney and not visit the Harbour Bridge and Opera House, and this route happens to show off both. Start at the bridge’s northern landing, run across it, and follow the path around Circular Quay past the Opera House and the Botanic Garden to Mrs Macquaries Chair. Then turn back for the bridge. It’s about 12 km, and views are to-die-for. Make sure your phone is fully charged. No matter how many times I’ve run this, I always stop to take photos and videos. There are two fabulous outdoor pools—Olympic Pool, under the north side of the bridge, and Andrew Boy Charlton at Mrs. Macquaries Chair—great for photos, and post-run backstrokes.

Jump on a ferry from Manly to The Quay Sydney. There is no other ferry ride like it. You will pass the famous Opera House and the Sydney Harbour bridge affectionately known as the Coat Hanger.

You can't miss the giant coathanger. If you're feeling brave and fit, book in for the Bridge Climb and check the amazing views. Even if you don't do the climb, you can still get majestic views over the harbour and Opera House
