Located at the back of Austimer, this track pretty much goes straight up the Escarpment with stairs and ladders - a good work out!
Sublime Point walking track is one of the iconic treks of the Illawarra escarpment, and a challenging walk through lush coastal rainforest to the plateau above with incredible scenic views. The steep climb is ideal for experienced bushwalkers and a great nature escape. It is only 800m up (1,6km return) but you will feel like it is much longer! Starting from Foothills road, Austinmer (opposite Ibah spa), the track ascends steeply up the escarpment cliffs, through dense forests dotted with tree ferns and palms. Stop for a breather for some great birdwatching, and look out for yellow-tailed black cockatoos or raptor birds such as falcons and kestrels. About 3/4 of the way up you come to the base of a set of 9 ladders. Believe it or not, this is a relief for your legs as you can use your arms as well. Continue on further until you emerge through a gate and you are at the top! Enjoy a bite to eat or a well earned icecream at the Sublime point cafe while you take in the spectacular views before heading back down.

Beautiful walking track. Quite steep but worth the effort when you get to the top and see the incredible views all along the coast. Also a great cafe at the top where you can have a coffee or meal and enjoy the view.
Feeling fit? Try climbing the escarpment on the sublime point track, you'll be rewarded with a nice cafe at the top. Do not attempt if you're not fit.
