Worimi Forest Walk
Wander through a forest of paperbark trees until you reach a swarm of mobile sand dunes.
Overview
Worimi National Park is one of the biggest drawcards to the Port Stephens region, particularly for thrillseekers. Most of the credit is given to Stockton Beach, and deservedly so. It's the longest beach in New South Wales at 32 kilometres, and the enormous mobile sand dunes are primed for quad biking and sandboarding adventures. But the journey to get there is well worth some attention, too.
Worimi Forest Walk begins at the car park on the Fern Bay Access Trail. From here, it's an easy 1.4-kilometre stroll (one way) through the Worimi Conservation Lands — a forest of native greenery, including coastal sand apple blackbutt trees, swamp mahogany paperbark trees and old man banksias. Eventually, you'll pop out at the southern end of Stockton Beach, an area rich with Aboriginal history, including campsites and burial sites.
