    Tips

    March 2, 2026

    Fishponds is a long natural waterhole on Berowra Creek, surrounded by tall sandstone cliffs and small caves. Stepping stones cross the creek at one end, with a small timber bridge nearby, making it a natural rest point along the Blue Gum Walk. Despite its inviting appearance, swimming is not recommended due to pollution and past incidents, so it’s best enjoyed from the banks.
