How to Get There: by road from Sydney via Gt Western Highway.
By train from Sydney via Blue Mountains line
Best Time To Go: the Blue Mountains is an all-year-round destination, however it is considerably cooler than Sydney and the coastal regions around the capital. In winter, The Blue Mountains can get quite cold and foggy, which can make viewing the region's scenic attractions difficult, and bushwalking away from the mort popular tourist spots quite dangerous. It is not unusual for The Blue Mountains to experience light snow falls in winter.
To ensure you have clear weather to view the scenery, check the weather forecast before leaving Sydney.
