The
World Heritage Listed Blue Mountains is surrounded by thousands of hectares
of pristine wilderness, rugged landscapes and an abundance of flora and
fauna. Kangaroos & Wallabies can be regularly seen to the east and
west, while an amazing array of birdlife can be found right throughout
the mountains. Shady rainforest canopies and wonderful flowering eucalypts
blend with cool climate exotic gardens and magnificently landscaped gardens.
From the Nepean River and foothills to the east, rugged peaks and spectacular
views at the summit and the sometimes snow covered pastures on the Western
Plains, our glorious mountains are a delight all year round.
Comprising
a chain of dozens of villages, each with its own charm and unique appeal,
the Blue Mountains is at times a living museum filled with convict and
colonial heritage. Then magically transform into wild celebration during
our many village festivals, or display a cosmopolitan face through the
diversity of our cafes and restaurants. Art has always played a major
part of mountains life and you'll find artists, galleries and craft shops
in most villages.
Whether
you are seeking solitude and rejuvination, adventure and exitement or
simply an indulgent treat, the Blue Mountains is a must-see for your
next holiday.
