Itinerary description
Probably one of the best walks in the Blue Mountains park. Very diverse: eucaliptus-filled plateaus and dry climate at the top part, with great lookouts to the valleys and cliffs of this area of the mountains, and dense humid rainforest-like vegetation at the bottom of the canyon, which is much cooler and darker even in hot sunny days.
Do not rely too much on the GPS track, I uploaded it for reference and sharing pictures in order to let people know what to expect. But all the part at the bottom of the canyon is surrounded by steep walls (overhangs, even) so the signal is poor and contains many errors. However, the trail is really well marked, impossible not to follow it correctly.
