Beautiful all year round. Spring Rhododendrons, Autumn deciduous colour change and winter native flowers. There is something to make everyone happy here. We often take a picnic rug, a bottle of wine and some nibbles to enjoy the birdsong and the clean air for a few lazy hours.

The scenery here is just as stunning as Echo Point - minus the Three Sisters and 30 coach loads of tourists.
Many of the best Blue Mountains hikes lead from here.
Be sure to visit the I Centre for maps and advice from the National Parks Rangers.
