The Three Sisters

The Three Sisters in the Blue Mountains

The Three Sisters is an iconic and one of the most popular attractions in the Blue Mountains in New South Wales. It is an interesting geological formation, that has been weather carved over millions of years. The three rock pillars over 900 meters high each stand close together, yet away from the main cliff wall. They stand out in their beauty and uniqueness against the distant mountains of the Jamison Valley.

It is interesting to watch the Three Sisters at different times of the day. You can see their changing colours as the sun moves over them in the sky. They look particularly impressive at sunset.

Location of the Three Sisters

You can see The Three Sisters from a few different locations. However, they are best viewed from Echo Point lookout, near Katoomba. Echo Point is only about 5 minutes drive from Katoomba.

Prince Henry Cliff walk

Echo Point with the Three Sisters is along Prince Henry Cliff walk, which is 7km long, one way. The walk is Level 3, which is moderate difficulty. There are many lookouts along the way. We have only covered part of this walk and viewed the best of what it has to offer.

Katoomba Falls

You can see the falls from Katoomba Falls lookout. The Skyway cable car also passes there. Consequently, it makes an interesting object for your photographs.

Katoomba Cascades

Katoomba Cascades are also along the Prince Henry Cliff walk. They are hidden below. You can spend some time there watching the water cascading down the rock and flowing into the stream.

There is a lot more to see in the Blue Mountains. You need a few days to explore this beautiful region.

How to get to the Three Sisters

The Three Sisters is roughly 100km west of Sydney. It can be reached via motorway or public transport. There is no entry fee to the majority of the park. Although some places, like popular Echo Point, requires parking fees.

In conclusion, I would add that the Three Sisters is a must to see attraction. Firstly, it is so unique and iconic. Secondly, it’s immensely beautiful.
