This is a beautiful spot for a quick bite to eat or a stretch of the legs before exploring Australia's oldest national park, near Waterfall. Gunjulla Flat picnic area, on the western edge of Royal National Park, is a quick and easy pit stop on a day trip or car tour of the park.
Pull up and lay out a picnic spread on one of the tables and enjoy a rustic bush setting. It's an ideal spot for a breather while road cycling around the park, or a great place if prepping your gear for a day exploring the hinterland. It's only a short drive along McKell Avenue to Couranga walking track or Forest path.
The surrounding heath attracts birds such as fantail cuckoos, pigeons and quails.
