You’re likely to see some swamp or red-necked wallabies on your ride. And if you hear a soundtrack of high-pitched calls, it’s probably from the bleating tree frogs nearby.

A monument to the clipper ship Walter Hood, wrecked on this south coast in 1870, can be found at Monument Beach. For a longer ride, return via Heath circuit.
