Experience the majestic Blue Mountains with distant blue haze horizons overlooking incredible canyons, spectacular waterfalls and quaint hamlets that are home to artists and those following an alternative lifestyle. This World Heritage Site really does look blue – due to the rainforests of oil bearing eucalypt that cling to the mountainous cliffs and thickly inhabit the valleys. Breathe in the crisp, clean, mountain top air as you take in amazing features like the Three Sisters. There is a rich history to discover, Europeans first reaching the Blue Mountains in 1788, while the beautiful Gundungurra Aboriginal people have lived here for millennia. This is a very special place.
