Really enjoyed an easy 40 minute walk from the NPWS office to Govett’s Leap lookout. Peaceful forest, with many bottlebrush and acacia flowers to enjoy, finishing with the spectacular view from the lookout, with Bridal Veil falls to the right and Pulpit Rock straight ahead. The power of this landscape is so much more impressive when there’s so little human intrusion. Went to Pulpit Rock the next day.

100 Years at Logan Brae Orchards Occupying the same land since its establishment 100 years ago, Logan Brae Orchards is a family run orchard on the Shipley Plateau, located 5 minutes from the Blue Mountains town of Blackheath. The orchard was planted in 1919 when the plateau was mostly an orcharding community. At it’s fruit-bearing peak in the early 20th century it was home to thirteen orchards. Today Logan Brae is the plateau’s only remaining orchard and is a sweet reminder of how our fruit used to be grown. Every weekend during apple season, March through July, you can visit Logan Brae to buy apples, juice and a variety of other produce. Or you can sit on the lawn and enjoy the spectacular views of the Blue Mountains escarpments while eating a homemade hot apple pie.
I always try to visit when I am in the area, the apples are always fresh, the apple pies are incredible and the 100% apple juice smells and tastes just like apples so you know nothing is artificial.

Campbell Rhododendron Gardens, in Bacchante Street Blackheath NSW (about 1km from Blackheath railway station), cover an area of 18.3 hectares. The Gardens are unique, where exotic plants thrive under a canopy of Australian native bushland. Rhododendrons and Azaleas are at their flowering best between late-September and mid-November, and winding paths make exploration of the Gardens easy and fun. If you can't walk far, the accessible Lookout offers a magnificent view down the valley and across the Reflection Lake. You'll find picnic facilities and accessible toilets, and your dog is welcome. During the spring flowering season (until early November), the Rhodo Tea Room is open for 'Aussie Cream Teas' and unique Rhodo souvenirs. The Gardens are maintained by volunteers and rely on your generous donation to pay for the continuing upkeep and maintenance. Donations can be made safely via our website or cash in the blue-green DONATION box at the Information Kiosk.
We just drove around town and happened to get here. Very peaceful and lovely, kids observed little tadpoles in the pond, different species of rhodos, very good bush walk with young children. Really admire these volunteers!

About 7km out from Blackheath, to the NE, you will find a car park that points to two attractions: Wind Eroded Cave and Anvil Rock. The last 3km are dirt road and it's not all that smooth. The walk from the car park to Wind Eroded Cave is only 5 minutes and is easy terrain with no steps - from memory. (Not quite as easy as Anvil Rock, though, as the path is a bit more rough). Without revisiting Wave Rock in Western Australia, I would probably rate this as just as good. The overhanging rocks look quite scary. The wind erosion has left holes of various sizes and it has to be seen to be believed. (Make sure you do both attractions in this car park).
