The Blue Mountains by Marilyn Williams The Blue Mountains are found only about 90 minutes NW of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. The area around Sydney, to the foot of the mountains, is reasonably flat, but the rise up into the mountains is really quite steep. The main city of the Blue Mountains is Katoomba, and the scenery spectacular.
Glorious views of deep valleys and sheer cliffs.
For echoes in the Blue Mountains, yell out at Echo Point and hear your voice return!
Walks, going deep down into the valleys take you down countless steps.
And easy way to enjoy the vista is by riding in the Skyway.
Wonderful waterfalls, falling straight down over the sheer cliffs.
Very cold mountain ponds.
A thrilling ride in the The Scenic Railway takes you from the very top, This little railway was used around 100 years ago for the miners working in the area.
After getting off The Scenic Railway,
One of the old steam trains on the Zig Zag Railway... a ride back into time.
Caves House... the hotel at Genolan Caves.
A variety of wonderful limestone caves, with guided tours to show off their fantastic formations.
Limestone caves means the wonderful blue water created by the limestone. There is something for everyone up on the Blue Mountains...
