Go deeper in the Blue Mountains
The Three Sisters rock formations in Katoomba are famous in Australia and the world over. But we’re so much more than that. With 26 villages surrounded by UNESCO World Heritage-listed national park the Blue Mountains has a diversity of experiences to offer.
Just look a little deeper...
From mocktails atop a cable car suspended 400m above a stunning World Heritage listed valley, with the Three Sisters right beside you, to a chilled wine amongst the native wildlife, with the escarpment glowing orange at sunset. Visit the Blue Mountains for a soul enriching experience.
The Blue Mountains is an eco-certified World Heritage listed destination where rock climbing, canyoning and bush walking are accompanied by award-winning restaurants, beer voted the best in Australia, wineries and a quirky side; think art deco grand hotels, one-off shops you find nowhere else and world class art galleries.
Our vision is to be celebrated not only as a destination, but as an exemplar for sustainability.
World Heritage-listed Greater Blue Mountains Area is located within the Country of six first nations being the Darkinjung, Dharawal, Dharug, Gundungurra, Wonnarua and Wiradjuri Traditional Owners.
