Getting
away from it all
In
Sydney this will be easy. There are many options;
The
Blue Mountains
which are small townships surrounded by National Park altitude
200m-1350m . The Mountains start 50km to the west on the M4 which
is an easy 30min Drive from the Sydney Olympic Park. The popular
tourist town of Katoomba is 70minutes drive.
Sydney
has great beaches which are only ever busy on weekends in Summer.
The
complex at NSW Academy of Sport at Narrabeen has a Synthetic surface
and is situated 5minutes from the beach.
Sydney
can have heavy road traffic during peak times but is very quick
to travel across after 7:00pm each night.
