Wentworth Falls Lookout

Wentworth Falls is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the NSW region, near Sydney, attracting large numbers of visitors not only from overseas but also from nearby local communities. The mountain scenery is vast and majestic, surrounded by native forest and fresh, clean air. You need to be in good physical condition to hike down and climb back up the steep stairs, and remember to bring water to avoid dehydration when you get tired.

It is a lovely spot to take in the view. We visited a few days after it had been raining and you could hear the falls from the lookout and the paths. We hadn’t been through the blue mountains for years and i was impressed with the paths and the parking there, i can see it may get busy if there is larger groups or schools, but overall a nice spot to visit for all ages to have an easy access to the views.

No tickets, no frills, easy hike and beautiful part of the blue mountains. You can either Park at Wentworth Falls village and walk 2 kns from there or just get tk the lookout, park about 5 mins away on a side street snd away you go. No tickets, no gmicka like the 3 sistas. There are several walks, fair amount of stairs but you can so as much or as little as you want. Beautiful birds, sights and fresh water as it trickles down to join the waterfall. Spent an afternoon here and you will be at peace with nature. Walk In Darwin footsteps- yes Charlie himself visited here a while ago!

Want a good workout for legs then the walk down to, and then up again, is a must if you have a decent level of fitness. Walking down the steep steps feels like you are just putting of the inevitable climb back up but the view of the falls that you get at the bottom is immense and indeed worth the effort of climbing back up again. Just watch your step if wet or after recent rain.
