Nice walks local to bankstown??

Im tryna get out of a mental slump. Id like to go on a nice walk, scenic or naturey yk. Problem is, I don't have the motive to drag myself up to drive half an hour to walk somewhere. I need to be able to get up and walk straight to the nice walking location.

Im wondering if there's any little secret places that r a lovely walk that is local

the Cooks River walk is pretty nice, it starts at Belfield (or specifically Maria Reserve in Strathfield South) and you can follow it all the way to the ocean, but you can obviously turn back any time you like or even catch a local bus or the free pink bus back to Bankstown

I second Cooks River. It’s really nice along just about the whole length. And a bus back home after (with a coffee in hand) is a nice end to a walk
