Whether it is a rainy day wander or a slow weekend outing, the Blue Mountains has a thriving boutique scene. Across each village you’ll find small, independently owned stores where every piece has been chosen with care.
Stop for coffee, browse at your own pace and pick up something to remember your visit by. And if you’re a local, there’s no better way to support the community than by shopping close to home.
