Itinerary highlights

Hindmarsh Lookout

Set high along the escarpment in Hindmarsh Lookout, this impressive vantage point offers sweeping views across Kangaroo Valley and the surrounding wilderness. Layers of forested ridges stretch into the distance, creating a sense of depth and scale that defines the Southern Highlands. It’s a place to pause, take in the fresh mountain air, and appreciate the vast, untouched beauty of the landscape — a striking introduction to the day ahead.

Belmore Falls

At Belmore Falls, water flows gracefully over the escarpment, dropping into a deep, forested valley below. A series of well-positioned lookouts reveal different perspectives of the falls, the rugged cliffs, and the surrounding bushland. The setting feels calm and expansive, offering a quiet moment to absorb the natural beauty and rhythm of the Highlands.

Fitzroy Falls

One of the region’s most iconic natural attractions, Fitzroy Falls plunges over 80 metres into a dramatic sandstone gorge carved over millennia. From the main viewing platforms, you’re met with expansive valley views and the powerful presence of the waterfall as it disappears into the depths below. The combination of scale, sound, and scenery creates a truly memorable experience.

Robertson Village

Known as the “Green Heart” of the Highlands, Robertson is a charming country village surrounded by rolling dairy pastures and cool-climate rainforest. Rich in character, it offers a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere — perfect for a lunch stop, a coffee break, or a gentle wander. Its blend of rustic charm and local character adds a warm, human touch to the natural landscapes of the day.

Carrington Falls

by rugged cliffs and dense bushland. From the viewing areas, you can take in the scale and movement of the falls as water carves its way through the landscape below. The sound of rushing water and the open valley create a strong sense of place, both powerful and calming at the same time. It’s a memorable stop that captures the raw beauty of the Southern Highlands and provides a striking, scenic highlight to the day.
