How to get there
Car
Recommended
Driving is the most practical method. Follow Naas Road from Tharwa, then Apollo Road to Honeysuckle Campground, and finally Orroral Ridge Road to the car park.
Taxi
Recommended
Taxis or rideshares can theoretically reach the trailhead, but return journeys may be difficult due to the remote location.
Bike
Cycling is possible on the sealed Apollo Road, but the final dirt road and walking track are not suitable for all types of bikes.
Walking
A short walk of about 700-800 meters from the Orroral Ridge car park to the Legoland formations. A longer walk is possible from Honeysuckle Campground.
