Verified experiences and guided adventures in the surrounding area.
The minivan peels away from Sydney’s glass skyline before dawn and the city’s hum gives way to an austere ridge line: eucalypt crowns, cliffs cut in banded sandstone and a horizon that feels older than the metropolis you left behind. At Echo Point the Three Sisters stand like wind-sculpted figures above a valley that exhales blue haze; later, beneath the surface at Jenolan, underground rivers have carved chambers that drip slow light back into the rock.

Photography is allowed in many show caves but lighting is low; bring a tripod or use high-ISO settings and respect any flash restrictions.
The Blue Mountains are rewarding year-round; spring and autumn offer milder temperatures and clearer vistas, while winter brings crisp air and dramatic skies.
The Blue Mountains and Jenolan sit on lands of the Gundungurra and Darug peoples with deep cultural connections; European visitors developed the caves as a tourist site in the late 19th century.
Wear existing trails and avoid touching cave formations—oils from hands damage calcite. Stick to marked paths to protect fragile plateau vegetation.
