The Blue Mountains are named for the delicate azure haze that lingers along the region, which is actually a fine cloud of oil emitted by eucalyptus trees. The mystical mountains are a labyrinth of plateaus, gorges and gum trees. Check out the Katoomba Scenic Railway (the steepest railway in the world), the Jenolan Caves and the Giant Staircase nature walk.

We walked as a family of 2 adults and our kids age 16 and 14, setting off from the Wentworth Falls picnic area and completing the circular trail in a clockwise direction. The walk is challenging in places, so there is a level of fitness required in order to enjoy. 'Slack Stairs' wasn't as bad as it was made out to be I felt. The infrastructure was secure, though some of the paths along the bottom were a bit rough. We walked at a steady pace and thoroughly enjoyed the walk which took us 3 hours.

The Grand Canyon Loop is just over 6km long, This Grand Canyon Walk was a true bushwalking adventure, with wonderful views, vibrant rainforest, waterfalls, creek crossings, impressive sandstone walls and massive rock overhangs. Whilst it had some very steep sections both climbing down into the ravine and later climbing out, the track itself was very well maintained and had countless stunning views along the way. However the last forty minutes or so climb up the canyon wall to the top edge was very tough going but finally we got to Evans lookout which did not disappoint, wiith breathtaking views across the immense Grose Valley. After a further 30 minutes, we reached our cars for a well earned sit down. Well worth a visit..
