Scenic World

After we packed up and had breakfast, we drove to Katoomba to spend the day at Scenic World.  We took in all four attractions:  The Railway, the Walkway, the Cable Car and the Skyway.  We rode the railway down to the valley floor.  The Railway was quite the thrill at a  52° incline and the steepest passenger railway in the world.  The railway descends 415 m through a cliff-side tunnel, emerging into rain forest at the Jamison floor valley.

The walkway was an elevated boardwalk through a Jurassic rain forest.  At the far side of the walkway, we took the cable car back up to the main building.

We had a bite to eat at the restaurant. After lunch we went on the Skyway, which goes between cliff tops.  It is 270 m above the valley floor and has a glass bottom floor so you can look at the valley below.  It provided awesome views of the 3 sisters and Katoomba falls.

We stayed in the area that night.  The next day was an uneventful day where we traveled from the Blue Mountains back towards Sydney.  We ended up at a campgrounds in Wollongong. It was a nice place located along the beach and it even had a pool.
