Garawarra Farm car park

Highlight • Parking

Garawarra Farm carpark sits just off Garie Road in Royal National Park, and is the main trailhead for several walks in this area, including the popular Figure Eight Pools. There are toilets and benches, but no picnic facilities. It’s important to note that Garie Road is a dirt road not suitable for lowered 2WD vehicles or any 2WD vehicles in wet weather, mobile reception is unreliable, and the area is not suitable for small children or strollers, so be sure to plan accordingly before you arrive. The entry fee is $12 per vehicle per day, payable at ticket machines in the carpark, via the Audley Visitor Centre, vehicle entry stations, or the Park’nPay app: parknpay.nsw.gov.au.
