No mountain views? No problem 😎
Foggy days in the mountains are actually the BEST time to chase waterfalls!
One of our favourite stops: Pool of Siloam ✨
The best part? Our bus stops at multiple waterfalls and walking tracks all day, so even when the lookouts disappear into the clouds, there’s still so much to explore.

Your hard work in and out of the pool is inspiring, and we can’t wait to see what you achieve internationally.

We had this lookout all to ourselves on this cloudy, misty day. 😍

You can access Bridal Veil View lookout from Explorer Bus Stop 18 or 20 - but we usually go from stop 20 for the extra lookout views (there's 3 more lookouts on the way) and it's worth it every time.

Get off at Explorer Bus Stop 20 ➡️ Elysian Rock ➡️ Olympian Rock ➡️ Tarpeian Rock ➡️ Bridal Veil View.

Just keep heading west and the lookouts keep getting better! Then return the way you came. It took us 1 hour plus extra time for browsing and taking photos. Distance approx 2.5km.

After a 1am alarm and a 3:45am start in Katoomba it’s a super busy morning in the mountains working with the crew from Fantastic Aussie Tours for the Ultra Trail Australia 🏃
