Sightseeing
No visit to the Blue Mountains would be complete without visiting the sublime Govett's Leap overlooking the majestic Grose Valley. With a recent upgrade the views are not to be missed and there is a lovely terrace to take in the view and a picnic.
There are several challenging walks departing from here as well as a lovely cliff top walk to take in the falls either direction.

Bring some Sturdy Walking Shoes
Whether you intend to simply have a stroll around the property and take in the wildlife or keen to try something more challenging further afield, a good pair of sturdy walking shoes is a must as is a shower proof jacket. We sit at an altitude of around 560 m above sea level so it is cooler in the evenings and definitely cooler again up in Blackheath or Katoomba both sitting about 1050 m in altitude.
