2 day guided blue gum forest magic trek
Join us for a fantastic 2 day guided bushwalking adventure to the magical Blue Gum Forest in the Blue Mountains
west of Sydney. On this magnificent walk you'll discover a series of beautiful secluded worlds through the
Upper Grose Valley, starting with the dramatic Grand Canyon and culminating in the serene Blue Gum Forest.
The panorama at the end of Govetts Leap Road is one of the most breathtaking in the Blue Mountains - a
of greenery stretching to the horizon, constrained by sheer cliffs of rippling sandstone. We'll camp overnight
at Acacia Flats situated in the beautiful Blue Gum Forest.
