Description

Come along with us on a one-day hike in the Blue Mountains. Even though they’re just an hour and a half drive from Sydney, you’ll feel as though you’re worlds away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

From rugged cliffs to waterfalls and more, the scenery in the Blue Mountains is dramatic, and you’ll get amazing views at almost every turn you take.

Our hike will take around six hours in total and we’ll cover around 14 km. That will give us the opportunity to explore a few different trails in the Blue Mountain National Park and take in the diverse scenery.

We’ll start by taking the Charles Darwin Path to the Wentworth Falls. We’ll then descend the Giant Stairway (that’s 862 steps!) to Jamison Valley. This stairway is actually the tallest natural stairway in Australia. This part of the hike can be dizzying but we’ll take our time and enjoy it. After that, we’ll enjoy a local lunch before we begin our hike back.

You do not want to miss this opportunity to go hiking near Sydney. Book now and secure your spot.

I was looking for a local guide for a hike I was planning and came across Explore-Share. They seemed to have good reviews and so decided to give them a try. The experience was very positive and completely happy with their service. I will be using them again for next trip.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
