Info

Stonehaven Pass Wentworth Falls Picnic Area, WENTWORTH FALLS, NSW, 2782 More information The Stonehaven Pass was named after Baron Stonehaven, Governor General of Australia 1925-1930. It's a walk that takes about an hour and goes from the Den Fenella track to the Princes Rock Lookout Track. Walk down the Den Fenella track for about 3 minutes until you see a track turning hard left. There are no safety rails so take extra care. Take the track and follow it down to the Cashmans, then Bill Wilsons followed by Roses and Murphys Spiral. You can leave via Princes Rock Lookout but it does get fairly overgrown and very boggy in places. We recommend returning the same way. Walking Tracks Closures NPWS and BMCC Great Western Highway, KATOOMBA, NSW, 2780 More information Walking tracks and Lookouts in the Blue Mountains are managed by National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) and the Blue Mountains City Council (BMCC). There is no single list that shows who manages what, and neither organisation sends out alerts, so the only way to know what’s open or closed is to check via the links below. The BMCC manages 135kms of walking tracks in the Blue Mountains. The NPWS advises: Please check which areas are closed before travelling.
Furber Steps Scenic World, KATOOMBA, NSW, 2780 More information Furber steps can be accessed via the old Katoomba Kiosk site: https://w3w.co/squeezed.boomerang.willow for the walk down, or up from the valley floor near the Scenic World base station. It's a steep walk that visits several smaller lookouts with the option of checking out the mid-level of Katoomba Falls. They're steep in places, but much less rugged and exposed than the Giant Stairway and there are only about 996 of them. Furber Steps walking track is a 750m one-way, grade 3 hike. You have the option of doing the steps one way and catching the Scenic Railway the other way. Charges apply if you use the Scenic Railway. Fortress Rock Lookout LEURA, NSW, 2780 More information A fantastic return walk with stunning views from the lookout with the sheer cliffs and a deep valley to put it all in perspective. From the car park (and Fortress Ridge sign), this walk heads around the gate and up the hill. The trail leads to an area of low heath, then tends right (down the hill) for approximately 100m before coming to an intersection. Take the left track. From the lookout look closely and you can see Arethusa Falls. Off the track to the right is the track to Darks Cave which is not for the casual walker.
