A great place to to visit. Easy free parking outside. Friendly staff. Beautiful views of Newcastle City and Nobby's beach from the hilltop location. Worth a visit on your next trip to Newcastle. Should only need an 1 hour. They have a cannon firing on weekends at 1pm. The area is very well maintained by ground staff.

This location is an amazing spot to visit - a must visit place I would say. I was lucky to reach at the time the gun shot firing took place at the fort. The guides/ rangers of the fort are very friendly, knowledgeable and explains history of the fort in detail.

Great piece of history. Well worth a visit and book the tour to go down the tunnel. The volunteers are very friendly and knowledgeable

Visited today, what a wonderful experience.  Special thanks to Ian one of the volunteers who virtually gave us a private tour of the site,  his knowledge of the history and exhibits made everything that much more interesting. Easy parking, stunning views,  well worth the visit.

Fantastic! Get there about before 1pm for the firing of the cannon. After the cannon take yoirself on a self tour or you can get a guided tour of the Fort. The Fort is manned by volunteers, these people do and have done a fabulous job.

Went on the tour 9f the tunnels. It was an awesome experience with the 93yr old showing us all how it is done. Great stories and well run.

A fort that was used the war within the Nelson bay area. The guides were super friendly and knowledgeable of the facets of the war and there is a daily gunfire of the Canon weather permitting.

Scenic view not far from Strzelecki lookout point. Well maintained and informative centre.
