NEWCASTLE’S NEW ANZAC MEMORIAL WALK
A new addition to Newcastle is the Anzac Memorial Bridge along Memorial Drive. With stunning coastal views across the water and in the other direction the city, this is a walk worth doing.
There is plenty of parking down near the surf club and beach and also on the roadside at the other end of Memorial drive.
I think this is a walk for those who are not scared of heights and for those who are reasonably fit. It’s not only the walk up the hill, there is also stairs before you reach the beginning of the bridge.
The wind became pretty fierce on our visit and the numbers of people did make the bridge tremor from time to time.
The ANZAC Memorial Bridge honours the WW1 diggers from Newcastle with their names engraved on each of the metal figurines. It’s a lovely Memorial and well worth the visit.

Rydges Newcastle

10/10 Excellent

"We arrived late and the staff were a wonderful help. The hotel is very modern and clean and located along the harbour with a great boardwalk to stretch the legs after a long drive. The kids enjoyed Cold Rock ice cream a 5 min max stroll from the hotel. We grabbed some Thai takeaway too but could easily have opted for something on the room service menu. The pool has a great slide for the kids and a small playground. A short drive up the road/20 minute walk and you’re at Newcastle Beach with the amazing ocean baths. There is a beautiful scenic walk along the coast with a kiosk right on the beach selling food and coffee. Wish we had more time to explore but we were only stopping over for the night. Super comfy bed and pillows. "
