After spending the first week in Sydney's hustle & buzzle, we decided to venture our way out of the city and into the Blue Mountains. Blue Mountains is about 2 hour drive west of Sydney.This area of New South Wales is well worth a visit as you get a different perspective of the australian wilderness.
And so there we were back out on the highway driving on the left side of the road.
The Blue Mountains is a range of sandstone escarpments, canyons, rivers, rock formations and waterfalls kind of like our Grand Canyon.However the sandstone canyons in Blue mountains are all covered by a thick carpet of eucalyptus scrubs creating bluish hue, I guess hence the name Blue Mountains.
The main attraction is the Three Sisters which are primarily three large rock formations overlooking the immense valley. After seeing the main attraction we decided to take a walk around to the other side of the blue mountains. Just kept following the trail with steep steps leading us deep into the forest. Walking round we got so see some other great views of forest and Katoomba falls .
