I actually parked at Brighton beach, and walked a round trip but only recorded the trip home. Where you walk is optional - along sand dunes, beach or through Burwood Forest. Although I’d recommend you try to stay off the mountain bike tracks if possible. You can dip up and down, there’s lots of tracks joining the beach with the forest. Enjoy!
