Hike summary

A great walk for those exploring Scenic World as it passes the old coal-mining sites of Katoomba. Following the base of the cliffs the views are largely shrouded until breaking out into the open at the Landslide. As you walk be sure to look up and see if you can spot any abseilers especially in the Malaita Point area.
