New South Wales - Illawarra Escarpment

Illawarra Escarpment



Starting from the south, these two pairs of left/right photos were taken along the Minnamurra River from Riverside Drive in Kiama Downs. The second set features Dhruwalgha Mountain to the southwest and Knights Hill due west.


Jumping to the top of Illawarra Ridge (apparently the official name no one uses), these are from Illawarra Highway (A48) looking across the dropoff of the escarpment at a farther (unnamed) point thereof.


After descending the ridge, these photos look south and southwest (left/right pair again) toward Knights Hill.


Another left/right pair of photos looking south toward Yellow Rock at Stockyard Mountain.


Guess what type of photos this pair is? Now I'm heading north from Albion Park, looking at a different part of the escarpment.


In fact, it turns out only the ridgetop photos were not a left/right pair. These were taken from Memorial Drive in Woonona (Highway B65) looking north toward Sublime Point.
