The Blue Mountains region is the most accessible (1 1/2 hours from Sydney) World Heritage-listed wilderness area in Australia. This walk incorporates two of the most impressive Blue Mountains walks, which have always been popular since their construction in the early 1900s. If you arrive early on day 1 we can throw in another walk.
On this 3-day getaway, you’ll descend the Giant Stairway and get close enough to touch the Three Sisters. There are descents through lushly forested areas to vantage points with close up views of waterfalls. Creeping vines, green moss and giant trees will be your constant companion while hoping to catch a glimpse of the elusive Lyrebird.
In Waterfall Valley, expect to see cascading falls with hanging swamps growing out of the cliffs. Hike into the depths of stunning canyons where forest giants tower overhead with the sounds of flowing water, birdsong and wind in the trees. Learn about the evocative blue haze that gives the mountains their name, as you hike through eucalyptus forest. Follow the Mid Cliff Walk to the 2-tiered Wentworth Falls, then it’s an invigorating trek to the top. The walk also traverses the national park between two delightful accommodations.

Myself and 5 other ladies took a self guided walk in the Blue Mountains in March 2019. The walks were truly amazing. Lots of options provided for every fitness level. We couldn’t fault the accommodation nor the food provided and the service from our hosts at both Lurline House (Katoomba) and Broomlea (Leura) was outstanding. We can highly recommend Stroll for their well researched walks, accommodation choices and fast, efficient and friendly service.

I have just returned from my second trip with Stroll. The first was to the Blue Mountains in September and this time was Tassie in January.
I can’t speak highly enough of the Stroll experience, from the team in the office, the guides on the trail and the seamless trips.
The accommodation and food are top notch, the guides both expert and accommodating. with 2 guides on each trip, the offer to take an easier/harder option and to walk at your own pace is genuine, encouraged and supported.
I know I’ll be back for a third trip and then some!

I organised a walking trip for 10 school mums to the Blue Mountains with Stroll. Their staff where fantastic from the outset and really understood what we wanted. They booked all our accommodation, transfers and meals along the way and provided comprehensive track notes. All we had to do was turn up and follow the dot points. The selections along the way where all excellent with a great mix of having a casual pizza night followed by a serious restaurant meal. I would thoroughly recommend Stroll to anyone considering organising a walking holiday.

As UK based hikers we’ve done a lot of self guided walking in Europe but we were a little anxious about what walking in Australia was like. We need not have worried – from the first email contact with Stroll we knew we were in safe hands. Stroll’s attention to detail is second to none. We did 2 hikes on this trip: the Blue Mountains and the Cape-to-Cape. All the transport and accommodation worked out very well – we were treated like royalty by the local suppliers! The walk notes and maps were excellent and we loved all the extra detail – we felt we’d learned a lot on these walks.
So, don’t hesitate: book today! You’re sure to have a wonderful experience and enjoy the challenge.

3 day self-guided walk from Blackheath to Leura. Amazing terrain, very warm & bit muggy…walks are not so easy as it is up/down constantly. So very rewarding.
the BnB are spectacular…with very friendly hosts and wonderful accommodations.
Maps are easy to follow. Highly reccommend.

Our walking group of old friends, numbering between 9 and 13, have completed three (3) Self Guided walks with Stroll. Walks include, Rood of Australia, Blue Mountains and Mornington Peninsula. We have found on all walks that the scenery has been fantastic and very memorable. , Accommodation arranged, even for a group of our size, along meals provided have been of a very high standard with all proprietors being very helpful and eager to assist in any way. They all say how pleased they are working with Stroll and their efficiency. The walking notes, maps and documentation provided by Stroll have been very concise, up to date and easy to follow. Notes have also included history of the area and details of fauna and flora where significant. Stroll have always monitored our progress throughout our walks and provide easy contact if required. Their notes also include detailed information on transportation to and from starting/finishing points and good details for first aid etc. Overall we find Stroll very efficient, an excellent provider of itineraries and we will definitely be using their services for future walks. We recommend Stroll without hesitation. Paul
