The Family Find

Before we get into it; remember to follow @thefamilyfind for family-friendly walks, hidden gems and outdoor adventures around NSW. This 3.5km return walk winds through beautiful bushland to a series of lookouts with sweeping valley views and a front-row seat to one of NSW’s most spectacular waterfalls. The car park often looks busy, but don’t let that put you off. Most visitors only walk the 200m path to the first lookout before turning around, leaving the rest of the trail feeling surprisingly quiet. Best visited after rain when the falls are at their most impressive, making it a great winter adventure, but the scenery here is spectacular year-round. A few things to know:
• 3.5km return walk
• Multiple lookouts along the trail so no time to get bored
• Some stairs along the way so not suitable for prams
• Can get a little muddy in places
• Pack a drink bottle and some snacks
• Toilets picnic facilities and even a cafe at the carpark One of the best waterfall walks in the Southern Highlands. 📍 This is Fitzroy Falls, West Rim Walk

A real-life goblin forest. Towering trees, moss-covered paths, endless greenery and waterfalls around every corner. This fun 4km loop takes around 90 minutes and starts from the Dawson Falls Visitor Centre. It feels like stepping into a magical storybook and is one of New Zealand’s most underrated family adventures. Follow @thefamilyfind for more family travel inspiration and hidden gems. 📍Wilkies Loop & Dawson Falls, New Zealand

We loved, loved, loved our trip to Sri Lanka! We have been asked how much we spent quite a few times, so I will get to putting up a post soon 🙂 Be sure to follow along @thefamilyfind

I posted this last night as a trial reel and got slammed for my poor parenting, clearly didn’t find our people 🤣🤣. I really didn’t realise how opinionated people would be about this! Reuben (he’s 7) had 100% control of the menu: He picked - Chicken Burgers - Sausage Pasta - Ravioli - Sticky Hoisin Mince - Carbonara (Clearly a fan of pasta and @simple.home.edit) Lunch - Chicken Bread Rolls - Salami and Cheese wraps He then had to check the cupboards/ fridge/ freezer for supplies we already had, before completing the order online, making tough decisions to stay on budget and then I drove him to the shops to pick it up the next afternoon. And before you come at me for my bad parenting, Reuben loved this opportunity to have some control and responsibility for the family! Would you trust your child with this job?

No joke, I think this is the most underrated travel accessory out there! HOT TIP: It’s the best $6 investment we made! If you had told me I’d be wearing one of these a few years back I would have said ‘you have to be kidding’, but honestly in some places it was a fly net or your sanity! If you’re new here, welcome!
