World Heritage Region and home of the Three Sisters



Gumtrees, gorges, waterfalls and walks! Retreats, Resorts, Cafe's and Cottages!

The stunning World Heritage scenery is enjoyed from the luxuries of brilliant hospitality throughout the Blue Mountains by millions of visitors each year. However, there's more to the region than just dining in the view!

Lovers of action sports can enjoy canyoning, abseiling or rock climbing, and artistic types will get lost in the many galleries and craft shops that add much of the character and charm to the area. Each town is loved by its residence for a multitude of reasons, and the common elements of beautiful views.

Read up about each and every town from Lapstone to Oberon and get to know the city.

The cosy cafes and award-winning restaurants are a food lovers dream, and there's accommodation to suit any budget.

If you have time, venture further beyond Leura or Katoomba to the natural wonders of Wollemi National Park, or the labyrinth of limestone grottos and caverns at Jenolan Caves.
