Sydney's Best Driving Roads - Galston Gorge

Galston Gorge is part of the picturesque Berowra Valley Regional Park in Sydney, Australia and separates Galston from Hornsby Heights. It contains a narrow stretch of road with a one-way wooden bridge across Tunks Creek (a tributary of Berowra Creek) and a series of very tight hairpins.

Some general info:

- Trucks, caravans, buses, and anything with a large turning circles not allowed.....for obvious reasons.

- Quite busy during the day especially peak hour, as locals don't have another viable choice if they want to travel from the Galston side to the Hornsby side (and visa versa). Night runs are one way around this and there isn't much risk of hitting wildlife at the Gorge. Don't quote me if you do hit something though.

- Lot of blind corners + narrow roads with little margin for error + traffic.......DO NOT RACE THROUGH HERE.

- Its more enjoyable to start from the Galston side rather than the Hornsby side - unless you enjoy having your foot on the brakes and navigating tight hairpins while going downhill for 5 minutes.

- Beware of cyclists, especially on weekends. Another reason why the blind corners should be taken carefully.

Thanks! Truth is driving around in Sydney these days is a pretty frustrating experience so I figure why not upload some places where you can occasionally get away from the bumper to bumper traffic and just enjoy driving :)

The car is a BMW E46 325ti.
