Trace the footsteps of convict road gangs on this 12-kilometre loop through Dharug National Park.

Ascend the beautifully engineered, World Heritage–listed Devines Hill road (part of the Old Great North Road) to a former stockade plateau. Then descend the steeper Finch's Line with sweeping views over the Hawkesbury River.

Along the way, your guides — professional archaeologists and historians — unpack the human stories, engineering feats, and convict graffiti that still mark the stonework today.
