Local Trail - Long Point

Long Point - 2km return walking track.

Getting there

The trail starts at the point where Cliff Street turns into Tasman street in Merimbula.

The track

Park at the end of Cliff or Tasman St and enjoy the easy, undulating walk (2 Km round-trip) through the lush bush and Melaleuca forest to the end of Long Point. The trail is a bush track, but reasonably wide and usually in good condition. Here you will find a large whale-watching platform with seating offering magnificent 180-degree views north to Short Point and south across the bay towards Pambula. You’re almost guaranteed to spot whales from here in Spring!

Difficulty

Easy - the trail is reasonably flat.

ConnectionS

The best connection is to the path down to Middle Beach which starts only 200 meres further up cliff street. This is mainly stairs and sand. You can also connect with the Merimbula Paths from Bar Beach (about 1km down the hill).
