Teddy Sinclair

Funky retail store for guys and gals at the top of the stunning Blue Mountains.

Reviewed By Boman55 - Sydney, Australia

Visited “Teddy’s” 18 months ago and it stuck in mind as the perfect place to return to if I need to eventually replace my “old faithful.” Well I needed to do so recently obtaining a high end, quality Italian leather wallet at a reasonable price that aim delighted with. Teddy Sinclair is a great place to visit and browse and (in my case, subsequently) purchase. Friendly and efficient staff and an asset to the the unique Leura Shopping Mall. Highly recommended.

Elysian Rock Lookout

Reviewed By swanboy01 - Mickleton, United Kingdom

There are loads of lookout points around this area. This one is easily accessible, and doesn’t have hoards of tourists competing for the view. And of course it offers a great view. You can walk along a trail in both directions from it to other lookout points.

Josophan's Fine Chocolate

Reviewed By GoTravelMum - Sydney, Australia

We always stop in here whenever we are in the mountains or even passing through. Beautifully styled shop and divine flavours. Our kids love their Rocky Road which comes in different flavours (traditional, orange and winter fruit). The honey & lavender and mango & chilli are just mouth watering. They have recently moved from a long narrow shop near the top of the mall to a wider, bigger retail space shop at the bottom of the mall. They are now located next to Cafe Madeleine which they also run.

Leura Cascades

Reviewed By 336Chelsea - Sydney, Australia

I guess the Blue Mountains is pretty spectacular whenever you go, but the cascades are still something special. It’s a relatively easy walk from Leura, or if you are up for a challenge, walk in from Katoomba and work those legs! When done hit the high street cafes for a well earned break.

Sublime Point Lookout

Reviewed By Et3e

Lovely spot as it the town (Leura, with good places to eat and a good bookshop, though it seems the collectables hall is closing down, sadly), as is the nearby-ish Three Sisters Lookout (in Katoomba)!

The Nook

The Nook began in Jan 1996 with just 12 members at the historic "Everglades"at Leura. It moved to the current location in Leura Mall in September that same year. The shop has been trading consistently since its inception with the membership growing to between 25 to 35 people. It is now one of the oldest artisan co-ops in Australia! Feel free to visit us 7 days a week with opportunities to watch artists and artisans at work. The Nook is a collective marketplace which showcases the work of local artists, designers and artisans. As a co-operative all members share the rent, fees, duties and everyday running of the shop. The shop is, therefore, run by volunteers. Enjoy your visit!

Reviewed By warners1 - Lake Macquarie, Australia

We visited here in June, so am late in adding a review. This is a beautiful shop. I bought an aroma diffuser with 2 essential oils which I use every day. Last week I ordered 2 more essential oils (my mistake in not ordering the correct essence - I love the Lemon Myrtle). This order was delivered very quickly, wrapped very well, so no breakages. I hope this shop continues to do well and that Aussies spend a few dollars here.

Gordon Falls Lookout

Reviewed By Roganroy - Leatherhead, United Kingdom

There is plenty of parking and a toilet here. The path to the lookout is not obvious but the route is right along the cliff path towards Leura Cascades. The views over the Blue Mountains are fantastic, but there is only a partial view of the falls. A strongly recommended walk.

Lockleys Pylon Walking Track

Reviewed By davidshnoudeh - Sydney, Australia

This is definiteLy an easy track to waLk.. it’s a good hour and a bit to get to the actuaL Lookout.. every direction you Look in whiLe you’re waLking is worth a photo. If you’re not afraid of getting dirt on your car or potentiaL stone chips, then a 4WD or Ute wouLd be recommended to drive down Mt Hay Road.. Very easy to find! Bring water!
