Experience nature, taste and adventure trails

Explore, discover and be amazed at what this region has to offer. 

Discover your sense of adventure, treat your taste buds or become a natural explorer with three new driving Experience Trails in the Penrith, Hawkesbury and the Blue Mountains. These exciting Experience Trails let you choose your own adventure and travel at your own pace to discover and uncover all the hidden gems of the region.

The Adventure Trail (pdf 10MB) takes you on a thrilling journey to discover adventures you never knew existed - from flying foxes, canyoning, getting up close with a cheetah, paintball or jumping in a go-kart. Don’t let the adventures stop there as you make you way though the region. There’s definitely something to suit everyone’s sense of adventure.

And there are plenty of stops to refuel at the amazing cafes and restaurants in the area. If working up an appetite is more your pace, grab the Flavour Trail (pdf 16MB) and call in to the local craft breweries, chocolate factories, working farms not to mention the world class bakeries, distilleries and cafes. Don’t forget to stop for a breath of fresh air and take in the magnificent views and nature along the way.

And why not explore the beauty and heritage of the region with the Nature Trail (pdf 13MB). Explore wide landscapes, waterways, paddle wheelers, lookouts or maybe even seeing Glow Worms. Don’t forget to make time for the beautiful heritage of the region as well (and of course for more amazing food!).

Now is the ideal time to getaway from it all and take a break to discover more than you knew existed in Sydney’s backyard of the Blue Mountains, Hawkesbury and Penrith!
