that have some limitations but are accessible with assistance. By
default all other pathways are generally accessible. The map also
shows where to find parking, toilets, lifts and services such as ATMs,
TTY telephones, taxis and bus stops.

Heritage conservation is central to Sydney Harbour Foreshore
Authority’s role as manager of The Rocks – the living window
on Australia’s colonial past.

However, the natural features and unique built environment
of The Rocks make it a challenging landscape to navigate
for people with disabilities.

Restrictions are created by the design of heritage buildings, paving
irregularities, narrow paths, steep ramp grades, stairs and the natural
elevated ridgeline between Millers Point and The Rocks.
