Discover convict-built Darlinghurst Gaol with a historian

Go back in time with this historian-led walk around Old Darlinghurst Gaol, a former Australian prison that was built by convicts in the 1820s. • We’ll visit the site of the first public hanging in Sydney (10,000 people reportedly showed up to witness the notorious event), see a women’s prison cellblock, and pass a former chapel. • We’ll also imagine the lives of the prison’s famous felons, including bushrangers, serial killers, and eccentrics. The poet Henry Lawson frequented the gaol in the early 1900s for his disorderly conduct and non-payment of debts. His poem, One Hundred and Three, is believed to refer to his time in the gaol; the title is a nod to his prison number. • You’ll also learn the purpose of the tunnel under the complex, which operated as a prison for more than 70 years before being converted into a college.

Blue Mountains: Wanderung zu den Three Sisters

We will get out of the city and hike into the heart of the Blue Mountains. Reconnecting to nature, we'll explore epic waterfalls, massive rock overhangs and breathe in the crisp mountain air on this World Heritage listed National Park walk. This is not your regular commercial tour. With a small-group of like-minded adventurers, you’ll travel by local scenic train from Sydney's CBD to tackle a full-day trek through the Blue Mountains wilderness with a private guide. You will also get to see the iconic Three Sisters. But rather than just going to the viewing platform like everyone else, we will instead plunge deep into the Eucalytus-filled valley and get away from the tourists before before climbing 300m/1000ft (over 800 steps in total!) to emerge right beneath the Three Sisters themselves. Over the course of the day, you'll be smashing your fitness goals and walking 14 km (9 miles) in total. But don't worry about keeping up with the pace. There will be plenty of time to soak it all in and share the good vibes of this walk. You can even pick up an ice cream or a drink at the end. And the best thing about this experience? All the proceeds go to help kids in need, as Emu Trekkers is a 100% not-for-profit organisation run by volunteer guides. Since founding in 2017, we have already donated over $185,000 to the local Indigenous Literacy Foundation and UNICEF Australia.
