Blue Mountains Region
Just west of Sydney, the Blue Mountains rise from the coastal plain in a series of sandstone cliffs, deep gorges and mist‑shrouded valleys. Iconic lookouts like Echo Point and Govetts Leap attract visitors, but away from the busloads there are quiet tracks and fern‑lined canyons to explore. Mountain villages offer teahouses, antique shops and cosy guesthouses. Locals might suggest a hike to the little‑known Gooch’s Crater, a collapsed lava tube filled with swamp and heathland, or afternoon tea at a tiny tearoom in Mount Victoria where the scones and jam are as memorable as the view.
Blue Mountains Council has an approximate area of 1,400 km².
It is comprised of parts of the state electorates of Blue Mountains and Penrith.
