The is an old road. Continue for 750 metres and you will come to a powerline. Continue across the powerline and after another 700 metres you will come to a road junction. Turn left at this road junction. Continue on this road all the way to the coast where you will find the junction with the Lighthouse Trail.
Directions
Drive to Tattons Corner in North Head. This is the corner where the Whistle Road turns off to the right. Turn onto the Whistle Road. Just after starting in the Whistle road turn left onto Mill Hill Road. This is a gravel road that climbs a hill away from North Head. Drive to the top of the hill past all the houses. The last building is a garage on the right. After the garage the road gets quite rough and wet so it's best to find a place to park where you are not blocking the road. The road turns to the right and continues into the woods.
