Swathed in a sea of slate toned mist, the Blue Mountains are renowned for their extraordinarily pristine rocky outcrops and dense, seemingly infinite green canopies.

The Blue Mountains is like no other earthly terrain and is an absolute must-see for those visiting Sydney.

The best Blue Mountains tours depart from Sydney and take visitors through the once impenetrable mountainscape to the Three Sisters limestone formation. An indigenous dream-time legend tells the story of three beautiful sisters from the Katoomba tribe, 'Meehni', 'Wimlah' and 'Gunnedoo'. Falling in love with three brothers from the neighbouring Nepean tribe, there were forbidden to marry due to tribal law. The brothers went into battle with the Katoomba tribe who asked a witchdoctor to protect the sisters by turning them to stone. Unfortunately, the witchdoctor died in battle before he had the opportunity to reverse the spell and the sisters have sat overlooking echo point ever since.
