Fernleigh Track Tunnel

The Fernleigh Track Tunnel, a 181-meter-long curved brick-lined structure beneath the Pacific Highway, serves as a notable feature of the Fernleigh Track, a 15-kilometer shared pathway connecting Adamstown to Belmont. This tunnel marks the boundary between Newcastle and Lake Macquarie, offering a unique passage through bushland and wetland areas. The track, suitable for walking and cycling, is accessible from various points, including Adamstown Heights. Along the route, visitors can encounter heritage railway relics and enjoy the natural beauty of the surrounding environment.
