World Heritage Blue Mountains National Park

The Blue Mountains cover thousands of acres and have temperate forests, sandstone cliffs and eucalyptus trees. Under the Australian sun, these elements create the famous “blue” mist. This blue haze is what makes your Blue Mountains Sunset Tour so special and different. On your tour you’ll see the native flora and fauna of the Blue Mountains and the traditions of the Indigenous people who live in this area. A special Indigenous creation story associated with the National Park adds to your visit.

Jamison Valley and Wentworth Falls

Once in the Blue Mountains, start a scenic walk that will take your breath away. You’ll get to a spectacular lookout at one of Australia’s most beautiful waterfalls, Wentworth Falls. Walk part of the National Pass track surrounded by blue cliffs.
