Blue Mountains

The Blue Mountains

While the Three Sisters capture the world's attention, the true magic of the Blue Mountains lies far beyond a single lookout. Sprawling across 26 distinct villages enveloped by World Heritage wilderness, the region reveals itself in rugged bushwalks, historic mountain towns, and a thriving cultural scene of galleries, boutique wineries, and local breweries hidden in the valleys.

The Lower & Mid Mountains

Quiet creek lines, waterfall circuits hidden in deep sandstone pockets, and shady loop tracks encompassing Springwood, Lawson, and Hazelbrook. Highlights include Glenbrook Gorge, South Lawson Waterfalls, Empire Pass and Sassafras Gully

Wentworth Falls & Leura

Dramatic waterfalls, historic cliff-hanging staircases, and mist-veiled ledge walks tracking along the massive escarpment edge. Highlights include the Overcliff-Undercliff Track, Empress Falls, and the roaring main drops of Wentworth Falls.

Katoomba & Jamison Valley

Iconic sandstone escarpments, expansive valley-floor forests, and remote ridge lines tracing the edges of a vast wilderness chasm. Highlights include the Prince Henry Cliff Walk, Ruined Castle, Mount Solitary, and the deep, shaded canopy of Federal Pass.

Grose Valley & Blackheath

Dizzying ridge-line lookouts, historic slot canyon floors, and soaring waterfalls tracing the Grose Wilderness. Highlights include Grand Canyon Track, Baltzer Lookout, Govetts Leap, and the isolated cliffs of Butterbox Point.

The Upper Mountains & Hinterland

High-altitude sandstone plateaus, exposed windswept ridges, and historic pioneer tracks descending toward the rural western plains. Highlights include the Mount Victoria historic passes, Mount Banks Summit, and the sprawling vistas of the Megalong Valley.

Wollemi, Gardens of Stone & Kanangra-Boyd

Towering pagoda rock formations, prehistoric subterranean glow worm tunnels, and deep, ancient granite walls splitting open into pure primitive backcountry. Highlights include the Dry Canyon, Kanangra Walls, Dargan Arch, and the Lost City.
