Leura Falls Walk

This walk in the Upper Blue Mountains, follows the Leura section of the Prince Henry Cliff Walk for around 2Kms, and has great views from lookouts along the way. My first blog post described part of the Katoomba end of this walking track.

Tarpeian Rock Lookout

We started this walk at Gordon Falls Reserve (near the end of Lone Pine Ave.) about 2Km from Leura train station. To finish our walk we turned off the The Prince Henry Cliff Walk, and walked up past the Leura Cascades to the Picnic Area. The Leura Cascades is my banner photo at the top of this blog.

Once back in Leura Mall there is no shortage of cafes.

Wildwalks notes describe the reverse route. The walk to Tarpeian Rock and Bridal Veil Lookouts can also be done as as short walk from Cliff Drive.

  1. Wonderful unspoilt country and views onto bridal veil look-out - I've been to Leura but only to sit in a coffee shop - which wasn't too painful!!
