Streeton Lookout

This well-loved lookout and reserve are nestled in the scenic area of Freemans Reach in the Hawkesbury. It draws both visitors and locals who pause to enjoy the sweeping views over the Hawkesbury River and the Richmond lowlands. Streeton Lookout forms part of the Hawkesbury Artists Trail located just a short distance from the site where renowned Australian artist Sir Arthur Streeton painted his iconic 1896 landscape, The Purple Noon's Transparent Might. The reserve is a perfect place to unwind or enjoy a relaxed picnic, with facilities including shelters, barbeques, and public toilets. It's not uncommon to see artists capturing the beauty of the landscape with their brushes or sketchpads.
