From Calmsley Hill you will continue to ascend the Blue Mountains via the highway. You will get to visit one of a range of stunning outlooks of the Jamison Valley seeing beautiful vistas.

Continuing on you will arrive at Eaglehawk Lookout, a remote lookout point away from the crowds for views of the famous 3 Sisters. Whilst the Blue Mountains features so much more than this natural attraction you can’t help but admire the unquestionable beauty of this amazing rock formation.

Here your guide will discuss the legends behind this famous rock formation and time available for you to take some great photos.

Traveling around the mountains, you will arrive at Evans Lookout where you will be issued your lunch pack and instructions on the hiking track. This is without doubt one of the most scenic hikes available in the mountains taking you across a number of valleys and ridges as you hike from Evans Lookout to Govetts Leap all the while looking out across Australia’s Grand Canyon, The Grose Valley. The Hike Concludes at Govetts Leap, one of the most famous lookouts in Australia. The magnificent waterfalls drop a whopping 180m to the base of the cliff. If you’re not mesmerized by the dancing waves of water spray, you’ll be transfixed by the sweeping views down the valley to the Grose Wilderness. Suitable for active people with a reasonable level of fitness.

Your last stop will be at the Blue Mountains Botanic Gardens where you will have an opportunity for a short inspection of the flora including the ancient Wollemi Pine (Wollemia Nobilis).
