/ -- Destination NSW has today released spectacular video and image highlights of the newly opened walking tracking between Bondi and Manly.

Walking between two of the world's most iconic beaches, Bondi and Manly, has become a reality with the opening of a new 80km urban walking track around Sydney's breathtaking Harbour foreshore linking the two.

Marked with over 350 distinctive Aboriginal Whale Symbol signs, the urban walkway is easy to follow with a digital walking App available for download.

Minister for Jobs, Investment, Tourism and Western Sydney, Stuart Ayres said, "The Bondi to Manly Walk is a great project to open the Harbour and its foreshore for the people of Sydney to enjoy and share with the world. Co-operation from all levels of government has created a cherished national asset which is arguably one of the most beautiful paths any keen walker can travel."
