The Three Sisters
These are three spectacular pillars of sandstone rock in the Blue Mountains of New South Wales, Australia. They are located close by to the town of Katoomba. They rise above the Jamison Valley.
The three pillars are named Meehni (922 m), Wimlah (918 m), and Gunnedoo (906 m). There are numerous scenic spots where the Blue Mountains look blue across the valley, and they are less than a two-hour drive from Sydney.
Travel Down Under
Within walking distance, guests can enjoy a delightful culinary experience at the nearby Echo Point Plaza, where they can savor a variety of delicious dishes for lunch and indulge in a freshly brewed cup of coffee. Additionally, visitors can explore the thrilling attractions of the area, such as the Scenic Skyway and Cliffhanger railway, both of which are conveniently located just a short walk away. A fee is charged to ride on either one.
Scenic Skyway
The Scenic Skyway offers a unique adventure as it takes passengers 720 metres above the breathtaking Jamison Valley, providing unparalleled panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. This fully enclosed gondola cabin ensures a safe and comfortable journey across the valley, allowing travellers to witness the beauty of the area from a bird's eye perspective. With its horizontal trajectory and spacious capacity, the Scenic Skyway promises an unforgettable experience for all who embark on this remarkable ride.
Cliffhanger
Known as the world's steepest passenger railway, the Cliffhanger Scenic Railway is an adrenaline-pumping attraction that follows a daring 310-metre route along the cliffside. Featuring adjustable seating that can incline up to a thrilling 64 degrees, this railway offers a vertical ascent up the cliff face, providing a heart-pounding experience for adventure enthusiasts. While the Cliffhanger Railway offers a one-of-a-kind journey, it may not be suitable for those who are uncomfortable with heights, as the dramatic incline adds an extra level of excitement to this exhilarating ride.
