The 34-kilometre trail winds its way past sparkling bays and isolated coves, rugged headlands and soaring cliffs.
Eastern grey kangaroos lazing on the beach, humpback whales breaching the waters and sweeping ocean views from soaring rock platforms...
Would you like to check out all these sights and more? Then waste no time and sign up for the new multi-day Murramarang South Coast Walk, which will be launched late April in NSW.
The 34-kilometre trail will run between Pretty Beach - just south of the sleepy hamlet of Kioloa - and Maloneys Beach near Batemans Bay. Along the way, it'll wind its way past sparkling bays and isolated coves, rugged headlands and soaring cliffs. And not to forget, untouched beaches such as Depot and Durras.
Keen hikers can book the three-night self-guided adventure, which includes camping at Pretty, Depot and Oaky beaches. Want to throw in some creature comfort? Two-night packages with cabin accommodation on Pretty, Pebbly and Depot beaches will be launching soon, too. Watch this space.

My all-time favourite destination is ... New York. You can drop a pin anywhere in Manhattan and start walking in any direction, and the sights and sounds of the city that never stops will begin to stimulate all your senses in an instant.
Next on my bucket list is … Scandinavia - at the peak of summer, when the sun almost never sets.
My top travel tip is … If you’re flying to Sydney from anywhere in the world, pick a window seat far from the wing on the left-hand-side of the aeroplane. If the weather gods and flight path align, you’ll have the most incredible views of the Sydney Harbour and Opera House.
