Harold Reid Reserve headland, also known as The Sugarloaf, is a dramatic sandstone landform rising from Middle Harbour. Enjoy natural waterfront bushland featuring diverse plant communities such as mangrove, woodland, open forest and rainforest species providing habitat for many birds and animals. You will see wildflowers, shore and forest birds and if we are lucky, possibly an Echidna in this splendid sandstone scenery.

The views of Middle Harbour from the lookout high up on The Sugarloaf are spectacular including Inisfallen castle to the north in Castle Cove. The foreshore circle track takes us through ever changing vegetation from damp on the South side and dry/sunny on the North side all with lovely views across the water through the trees. A rock platform at the Eastern side offers a view to historic cottages dating from 1904.

Picnic tables, bbqs and one Port-a-loo are available on the top of The Sugarloaf so allow some time for a rest and snack at the end of the walk.
