points and natural attractions and in the town itself,

A not-too-difficult
bushwalk out of Katoomba takes you to this natural feature, a
magnificent natural rock formation, which is the subject of a
Aboriginal legend.

Jenolan Caves
Australia's most
famous and impressive limestone caves in nearby Oberon, the nine
caverns are spectacularly lit and are accessible for most
reasonably fit visitors.

Lithgow Zig Zag
Railway
Located in the town
of Clarence, this aptly named railway makes its curving way
through the landscape, taking passenger through not only the
scenic landscape of the Blue Mountains, but also its history.

Mount Victoria
The highest peak in
the Blue Mountains is the site of a town by the same name, which
offers visitors a number of attractions, from the lookouts with
a spectacular view (Sunset Rock & Mitchell's Ridge), caves to
explore (Cox’s Cave, Ross Cave and Bushranger Cave) and historic
buildings in the town itslef.

Most famous for some
of the area's most spectacular gardens (which are open to the
