North Sydney to Kirribilli walk and ferry day : February 17 2026
Started out one of those IT days. Noticed a heap of sign ups to one of my opt-in pages. Went digging on the source and then onto how many went on to buy anything. Found out that a key interface was not working and people who abandoned were not being followed up. Suffice to say that had the brain scrambling. Had to get out - took the first train
Train headed south. Switched to a Metro also going south. Got out at Victoria Cross in North Sydney. The stations are deep and they have some effort into modern design. A good example of curves here
Not walked North Sydney since doing forex courses - a lot of building change since then
A few quiet lanes to cross - just up from where I trained
Technology One building - home to Tata Consulting - a friend worked there
Plan was to walk down to the water and maybe loop back to Millsons Point station. Far view of the harbour from up above
Walk across the freeway and the Sydney Harbour Tunnel offices
Path down to the water was blocked. Had to find a side way past some interesting old houses
Old sandstone somewhat tidied up parking must be a nightmare. Narrow road. Not enough place to do a u-turn
Even older
An unexpected art work. Too bad it was dropped on one of the moves. Snapped in two
Victorian style survives - railings are the clue
More railings but an out of style colour
A bit grander down the hill on more level ground
Reached the water at Anderson Park - not been here before
View across to Captain Cook cruises depot
Path does not follow the water - got to walk up the hill again - some modern interpretations of the old styles. A chalet?
Maybe a bit of Tuscan
White hibiscus at the top
The up and over path comes out above HMAS Platypus - submarine base
Pleased I came this way - could walk down the steps I walked up last time. View across the bay to Australian Border Force base
Context photo of the submarine base. Now a training facility - not sure subs come here anymore
Found a good spot to wait for a ferry to Circular Quay
View back to North Sydney over the top of Royal Sydney Squadron
Grand old house with an apartment block built up behind in style. Great harbour views
Did not know there was a ferry terminal here. Does an inner harbour loop back to Circular Quay
View back to where I walked from
Neutral Bay wharf - new and old. Quite a few people use this service
Navy base Woolloomooloo opening up in frame
Perfect day for Opera House and city views - calm and little wind
Opera House square on
Not often take a selfie - had to be done
Was a big public transport day for $2.50. Train - Metro - Walk - Ferry - Light Rail - Train - Metro - Train. Do love the access and reach
Shopped after. Cooked chicken curry for dinner - yum
