    The views of the mountains and valleys are quite difficult to find in other places and so this site is extremely popular. Definitely a photographic must! There were so many tourists when we visited - ...  more »

    The walk down is all worth it, not fit enough to go further down Giant Steps, 900 steps one way. Spectacular views.  more »

    Blue Mountain is such a wonderful place. Honestly I didn't expect it was like this. When you arrive you have a great look view to the mountain and hills around and it is very spectacular! I walked from the train station to the look point and then from the look point to the first mountain. It was a nice experience and i advise to friends and families. The three Sister is a place to visit one time in your like because is such a gorgeous place. Amazing view and spot from the look point. And you can walk down for a second point view between the rocks, cool!

    What a fantastic visit to the blue mountains today for our family of seven. Great views, rides & atmosphere & the icing on the cake is NO CHARGES FOR PARKING. THANKS HEAPS.

    There is no drop off point for older people who are not disabled but still find it hard to walk. Spectacular views though. Toilets were clean. Souvenir shop prices are very reasonable.

    Nice view with cool breeze. A passage to the Three Sisters and Honeymoon Bridge is a bit scary, but it's still OK.
