Blue Mountains Traverse Lux – 5-Day Self-Guided
Highlights
- Discover breathtaking vistas as you traverse the iconic Blue Mountains, immersing yourself in nature's beauty.
- Relax in 4.5-star Parklands suites that overlook stunning gardens, enhancing your comfort during the journey.
- Experience luxury at 5-star Lilianfels, perched on the cliff’s edge, offering unparalleled views of Jamison Valley.
- Encounter the elusive Lyrebird while walking through lush valleys and canyons, connecting deeply with the local wildlife.
This trip has entirely the same walking as the five day Blue Mountains Traverse but with upgraded accommodation spectacularly located right on the edge of the park. Enjoy your stay within the beautiful expansive grounds of the 4.5-star Parklands in spacious suites that overlook the gardens. You also stay at 5-star Lilianfels perched right on the edge of the cliff overlooking Jamison Valley in Katoomba, a resort-style hotel with a one-hat restaurant and two pools.
The hike travels across the plateau, via the valley floor and through canyons and across waterways. The walk begins in Blackheath and finds its way via Katoomba and onto Leura. As you walk you’ll be astonished by the sheer volume of incredible one of a kind vistas that the Blue Mountains is famous for. The descents into the valley are well worth the effort, as they afford you the luxury of walking up close to nature, to literally feel and smell the forest. The valley and canyon sections of the track take you via waterfalls and waterways and there is a high chance of spotting the elusive Lyrebird as you walk.

Auswalk Walking Holidays
Leave the car behind – get some fresh air and a healthy dose of exercise on a comfortable inn-to-inn walking holiday. While you walk, your luggage is moved ahead of you. You only need to carry a light day pack containing your picnic lunch, jacket and camera. The trips can be done self-guided using easy-to-follow walking notes and marked maps, or you can choose a guided holiday.
Each day has an average of four to five hours walking, leaving plenty of time for taking photos and enjoying leisurely lunch breaks. There are options along the way so it’s easy to increase or decrease the amount of walking you do.
Emerge from the National Park at the end of each day’s walking to be pampered in style. The bed and breakfasts, boutique inns and guesthouses have been hand selected ensuring variety, cleanliness, a comfortable bed, great food and a warm welcome.
