The Blue Mountains near Sydney feature some of the region’s most dazzling attractions, and for the outdoor lover, these are perfect for exploring. This magical location is open to the public all year round.

The mountains have a high number of Eucalyptus trees. These oil-producing trees fill the air with tiny droplets of oil.
