Illawarra Fly Panorama

Illawarra Fly Panorama

The view from the Illawarra Fly Tree Top Walk. The steel tree top walk combined with the Illawarra Escarpment combine to give an amazing vantage point. From the Tree Top Walk we are looking across Lake Illawarra from over Albion Park on the near side across to Port Kembla, with the Tasman Sea on the horizon.
