There will be two bushwalks at Blue Mountain region for Anzac weekend (April 25/26, Satursday and Sunday), from following three opinions: A Braeside Walk of Blackheath; The End of The End of Mt Victoria and Blue Gum Grandeur of Mt Wilson. A Braeside Walk (6km, 2.5 hrs): "Brae" is a Scottish word, meaning hillside. This track is a gentle walk beside the Govetts Leap Brook below part of the Blackheath township. This nbubbling brook comes to an abrupt end as it tumbles over a hugh wall at Govetts Leap to form the Bridal Veil Falls. The End of The Road (10km, 4.5 hrs): Mt York recreation area via Mt Victoria. There are many monuments commemorating explorers and road builders at Mt York, where a route to the fertile fields beyond the ranges was discovered. The foot tracks are the original roads. Can you imagine riding in a horse drawn coach on a bumpy track hewn through the huge rocks? Blue Gum Grandeur (6km return, 4 hrs): This is a view that you ar enot a real Sydney Bushwalker until you have been the Blue Gum Forest. It is not an easy journey. The current track from Pierces Pass to Victoria Falls is only half way of this whole track. It take 2 hrs for 3 km only. Outdoor activities carry their own risks of injury and death. The Organizer has no any control over what the participant does, and cannot accept any liability for any loss or accidents which the participant might suffer.
