The Three Sisters

The Three Sisters are three sandstone rock formations found in the Jamison Valley near Katoomba in the Blue Mountains.

At Echo Point is the best vantage point. From there you can walk along the Three Sisters Walking Track and get a closer view.

Echo Point

At Echo Point, you can visit the Echo Point Information Centre.

Walkout on the platform and you can view the Three Sisters.

The Blue Mountains City Council has made upgrades which includes an amphitheatre.

And you can go to another lookout that has been added to Echo Point, the Prince of Wales Lookout. Then, take a walk on the night-lit board.

Be there at sunset. And, you can watch the colours of sunset shine upon the Three Sisters.

WHEN I REACHED THE LOOKOUT AT ECHO POINT, THE LIGHT WAS THICK AND GOLDEN,

 

AS IF IT HAD PASSED ALL DAY THROUGH A BUTTERFLY’S DUSTY WING.

Three Sisters Walking Track

You can walk along the Three Sisters Walking Track amongst the tall trees. You will get a close-up view of the Three Sisters.

The sinking sun shines its light through the trees.

See below for things to do in the Blue Mountains. You'll find many walking tracks in the bush that you can take.

Now in the west the colours change,
The blue with crimson blending;
Behind the far Dividing Range,
The sun is fast descending.

 

And mellowed day comes o’er the place,
And softens ragged edges ...
