Blue Mountains Eco Tour

We were lucky to have a private tour for all of these great sights. We called up the company the night before and were told they had decided not to run the tour bus for the next day. However, because there were 4 of us the guide would come and pick us up in his land rover and give us a private tour.

First stop was Grose Valley.



The tour involved a three hour hike into the Grand Canyon. Which had some really awesome rock cliffs, and overhangs.


The drought is still on in Australia so not much water flowing down the waterfalls.













Nancy's butt after stepping on a particulary slipperly spot.




Tara is standing on the end of a launch rap for para-gliders at Jameson Valley.









The Three Sisters rock formation is part of aboriginal teachings.


At the end of the day we were all exhausted and covered in red dust and sand but it was well worth it.

Amazing photos, especially the one "standing on the end of a launch rap for para-gliders at Jameson Valley". Looks like on the edge of the world. :)

It's great to have a private guide and tour, isn't it? More fun and tailor to needs.
