West From Sydney
The
Blue Mountains
|
|
From Sydney, take the direction Paramatta
/ Penrith and after a short drive of 50 kms. you reach the Blue
Mountain National Park.
The Blue Mountains is a rugged range rising abruptly from coastal plains and presented
for a long time a formidable barrier to the colony located at Sydney Cove. The 24 little towns of the region
are very nice and quite, take the time to stop and have look to some of the houses and their landscaping.
|
|
The region offers great panoramic views, some
well known as the Three Sisters and the Katoomba Falls, Orphan Rock, ... Many walktraks are available.
One option is to drive to Katoomba and from there walk, take the
Scenic
Railway or the Skyway
(cableway), both very impressive. I did the first one, and was with a group of children. I think their teacher was more scarred
than them !!! |
The visit will not be complete is you forget the
Jenolan Caves, 80 kms. west from Katoomba. |
