Note: the Crown of Newport Reserve is not the grassy area at the end of Howell Cl — it's the rainforest gully between the end of Hillslope Rd and Kanimbla Crescent. It's a hidden gem, with a trail weaving it's way from the end of Hillsope, up the creek, to the top of the plateau (end of Kanimbla Cr.). A great short, but steep, walk in this pocket of bushland on the peninsula.
