Who said that high culture and fun in the sun had to be mutually exclusive? Beach bunnies and culture vultures alike will enjoy this novel attraction. The Bayside City Council has established an eight kilometre walking track along Sandringham and Beaumaris beaches that features reproductions of 12 paintings by the so-called Heidelberg school of artists. The path winds through bush reserves and along cliff tops, displaying paintings by Tom Roberts, Arthur Streeton and Frederick McCubbin at the very landscapes that inspired them. The trail begins at Sandringham Harbour near the intersection of Hampton and Bay Roads and concludes on Beaumaris beach. Admission is free Review © 2009, Wcities |
