Get Back on Track in Western Sydney Parklands
Sydney’s biggest backyard has had a makeover, with 60 kilometres of tracks and trails in Western Sydney Parklands now easier to navigate than ever before.
The Dairy
Immerse yourself in nature
The Dairy is one of the quieter locations in the Parklands, attracting groups of people looking for a serene picnic spot. Simply sit and enjoy the vast district views from its hilltop location.
Accessed from The Dairy, the Pimelea Loop is an easy 30-minute walk through nature. The Parklands Track connects The Dairy to Calmsley Hill City Farm, Lizard Log, Moonrise Lookout, Sugarloaf Ridge and beyond to Prospect Reservoir. It is ideal for a long or short walk or cycle.
