This trek is memorable to me as I have done the whole plan on my own with help from TripAdvisor, different social media and maps.me ( this app works without internet with GPS ON). I started my journey on a sunny day from Mt. Victoria at 723 hrs and reached Katoomba at 925 hrs by train. I took a bus just outside the Katoomba station and reached Scenic World at 945 hrs, from here I set my trekking for Blue Mountain (Dardanelles Pass walking track). The altitude of the place is 3000 feet, indicated in my watch. I opened the map and started following Prince Henry Cliff Walk. On the way to eco-point, touched Katoomba cascades to see the beautiful Katoomba falls, Cliff viewpoint for siting blue mountain and valley waves, sky East station to see the giant stairway, Lady Darley’s lookout to see the amazing three sisters before reaching the echo point. The three sisters view from eco-point is gorgeous. Decided to take three sisters walking track to explore the three sisters. Descending through the Giant Stairway, way down over 900 stairs, enter a dense canopy of magnificent coachwood. From this point, the left side is the base point of the scenic world and the right side goes to Leura forest through Dardanelles Pass walking track . The altitude of this place is 2200 feet. The one thing is in my mind that again I need to climb up almost a thousand feet. It started approaching along the Dardanelles path through this beautiful Leura forest. I was searching some company, lucky to get some people from Korea, got confidence to go ahead through this path. Because of maps.me, I knew that I will not lost inside the forest. The path is slowly going up as usual, sometimes it is flat also. But after some point of time, the path is going up and up through this awesome Laura forest. After one hour 15 minutes walk, would reach the junction of Prince Henry cliff walk. As I have decided not to go back to the echo point, so I took an exit from there and reached the main road. I took the main road and reached Katoomba rail station.

Starting from Echo Point, the descent down the Giant Stairway is a little tricky with a combination of rocks, steps and staircases amounting to 900 steps with a stop at the first sister. I’d recommend walking an hour along the valley towards scenic world. You then have a choice of paying to use the scenic railway or using the the Furber steps to get back to the top. You then have an easy stroll back to Echo Point. You need a reasonable level of fitness to do the walk. We took 2.5 hours for the circuit at an easy pace. Take lots of water as there is none available in the valley.
