Read "Blue Mountains , Sydney , Australia." on TravelFeed.io for the best experience
Today i am going to take you for a journey into the mountainous region of the Blue Mountains which is located in New South Wales, Australia. It is known for it's dramatic scenery, it amazing steep cliffs, eucalyptus forests and all the stunning waterfalls.
I have visited the blue mountains on a few occasions , living in Sydney it's only a one and half hour drive to the town called Katoomba and when people think of the blue mountains first thing that comes to mind is the iconic Three Sisters the huge rock formation but they are not the only things to see there.
You can either go for the day trip or book into the many hotels nearby and spend a few lovely nights here with your loved one or friends there are many unique shops, cafes. You can take the day trip hiking down into the blue mountains valleys with a guide or do it yourself and just follow the signs and the trails and admire all the stunning waterfalls.
If you are only here for a few hours you can take one of the two cable cars or both cable cars one cable car which is a glass bottomed cable car that you can ride across the mountains and observe the landscape from above and the other cable car is the steepest passenger carrying railway car in the world which will take you to the base of the mountain valley and there you can walk around admiring some of the waterfalls and some beautiful , Australia wild flowers.
The times i have been there i have always made a full day of it by taking different hiking trails every time i go visit the blue mountains there is some much to see and explore i just love the feel of fresh clear air like walking through a rain forest and the waterholes and waterfalls you come across never wants me to leave this paradise.
There are numerous exhilarating activities on offer in the mountains, from rock climbing and abseiling with operators such as the Blue Mountains Adventure Company to guided walks with Tread Lightly Eco Tours and Aboriginal Blue Mountains Walkabout. You can even participate in a challenging three-day hike with Life’s an Adventure.
I always like to walk the trails that have the signs telling you hour long the trail is and what you are going to see along the way it is best this way cause you could get lost quite easily in the thick of these mountains normally along these trails you will stumble across hidden canyons or some thing magical.
The views are never dull when exploring the blue mountains whether you are below in the thick of the rain forest or walking the above trails along the cliff faces of them huge rocks to catch that sunset or the reflection from them flowing waterfalls or maybe just a sit down to take it all in.
The Blue Mountains for me has always been a place to get away from that hustle and bustle of the city life and for what ever reason you come here for you will always leave with a clean tank of oxygen and a clean mind and you always what to keep coming back i know i do :)

The Blue Mountains does Australia proud!
It certainly does one of my favorite places to chill out when i need a good walk that's when i am back home 👍
Looks like a wonderful place to visit.
If you love nature and waterfalls this is the perfect hiking ground for that 👍
The blue mountains are an amazing place to visit. Cold but worth it
Most definitely but if your hiking around that will keep you warm 👍
I guess not the blue mountain they grow coffee at but still a very lovely place.
Haha... a bit to steep for coffee growing...lol..but yes certainly a great place for hiking 😊
Wow! You captured beautiful shots and great long exposure on the water falls.
Thank you @redheadpei i could spend days in this national park and never get board 😊
Way to go with those fabulous shots. I feel like I just took a trip without leaving home. Many of the photos remind me of Utah, the Tennessee mountains and our very own gorge here in NY called Walkins Glen. It is amazing that the world is so similar no matter where one travels. I so enjoyed the tour.
Thank you my friend i am happy you enjoyed the tour and you are right i remember been in Utah many years ago and it the blue mountains reminded me of the Tennessee mountains. We are all very similar in many ways 😊
Stunning views, exquisite photography most definitely a place worthy of a visit. Under 2 hours away from city life, grand way to escape for a day out.
Thank you @joanstewart it's one of my favorite escapes from the city life most definitely and always at peace in this paradise 🌲
These are amazing!
Thanks @jasonrussell one awesome place to hike 👍

and mountains and waterfalls! Outstanding! You sure have seen
a lot of fantastic places! :-)
Thank you @shasta when it comes to forest and mountains there is no holding me back if i can go i will 😊
Beautiful post buddy! Loved it !
Thank you Chris 👍
Holy smokes sir hangin! I never even knew the Blue Mountains existed, those are fabulous photos and scenery! Does anyone live out there, it looks like wilderness.
The Grand Canyon of Australia and yes people do live around the base of the mountains you should check it out on Google one amazing place 👍
I'd rather check it out in person!
If you ever get out of that redneck county...lol 😄
Beautiful picture
Thank you 👍
Such an amazing hike and beautiful photos. Our parks also have trail markers too, it is much easier to navigate. I agree taking them always leads to some spectacular feature. The first waterfall picture and the sun are my favorite pics.
Thank you @ladybug146 , yep you are right the signs always lead you to something spectacular and it's the safest way to go 😊
I am always touched to see you in #MarketFriday continue on, even in my absences! We have such loyal and wonderful people on board here. As you may or may not know, I have been in Columbia, South America and Panama and even a but of Miami. So I have missed the luxury od having a great connection whenever I want. However, the experience is truly worth it!
I did get to read all of the #MarketFriday posts and as usual, you never disappoint! We have the most inventive people when it comes to the challenge. You shine!
I cannot tell you how much it means to me - your support and #steemitlove! The time and effort put into each post is so much appreciated!
Thank you, always!
