A vibrant and historic town at the heart of the Blue Mountains, Katoomba spoils its guests with spectacular walks and lookouts, rich cultural heritage and great restaurants and bars. Just 90 minutes by car from Sydney, this scenic getaway is famous for its dramatic views of the Three Sisters and Jamison Valley.

Enjoy world-class views at Scenic World, where the Scenic Skyway takes a glass-floored journey over the valley and the Scenic Railway descends to ancient Jurassic rainforest.
Katoomba developed as a popular mountain resort town in the early part of the 20th century, a process aided by the advent of regular train services along the current line. The town reached an early heyday in the period between the wars, attested to today by the numerous examples of art deco architecture and shop fronts along the main street of the town.
Transport for NSW subcontracts some public bus routes to the Blue Mountains Transport Company - including Route 686 that goes from Katoomba Street to Echo Point (Three Sisters) and Scenic World. The trip is charged at regular Opal card fares. The Blue Mountains Bus Company's Route 686 also brings you to various tourist attractions.
There are many ways to explore the sensational views around the town:
Cliff Drive route to Narrow Neck in Katoomba
Katoomba Falls Round Walk in Katoomba
Prince Henry Cliff Walk, a gentle track that connects Echo Point to Leura Cascades
Ruined Castle Walking Track, a more challenging walk from the Golden Staircase into the Jamison Valley

Blue Mountains, New South Wales, Australia
The Blue Mountains, immediately to the west of the sprawling metropolitan area of Sydney, constitute one of the most accessible areas of relatively unspoilt natural highland beauty in New South Wales. Although not particularly high as a mountain range, the Blue Mountains are nonetheless renowned for their majestic scenery of a unique kind, their cultural attractions and a relatively tranquil, alternative mode of life.
The Blue Mountains region was inscribed as a World Heritage Area by UNESCO in 2000.
When the Europeans arrived in Australia, the Blue Mountains had already been inhabited for several millennia by the Gundungurra people.
Although not especially high, the Blue Mountains cliffs were sufficiently challenging to prevent European explorers from penetrating the inland of New South Wales from Sydney for some time. Attempts to cross the mountains began in the very early 1800s and it was not until 1813 when Blaxland, Wentworth and Lawson found a way across the mountains by following the ridges rather than the watercourses.
Once the route was found, roads, railway and development followed rapidly. The roads and railways today follow almost exactly the route taken by the original explorers. A visit to many of the scenic vistas, cliffs and waterfalls in the mountains will give you some appreciation of the challenges anyone would face trying to follow the rivers and creeks across the mountains.
There are literally hundreds of walking opportunities in the mountains, from short 1 km trips to lookouts, to multi-day walks, and the famous Six Foot Track from Katoomba to Jenolan Caves. They will have all the details at the visitor information at Echo Point.
The mountains are a major weekend destination for Sydneysiders, but also have a passionate local community. Making your way up involves passing through many villages. Each with its own centre, and residential area around it. The lower villages are almost an extension of the Sydney urban area, but the higher you go the more a mountain way of life becomes evident.
