Evans lookout

A brilliant introduction to the wonders of Blue Mountains National Park, Evans lookout offers breathtaking views towards Grose Valley, especially with the sandstone cliff walls glowing orange at sunset. Located near Blackheath, it’s a good spot to include in a day trip from Sydney. For those with mobility challenges, there’s an accessible path to ensure that everyone can enjoy these incredible views.

Evans lookout is a great base for adventurous bushwalkers who want to get amongst it. If you’re keen to lace up your hiking boots, take in the clear mountain air as you follow the Grand Canyon track through the expansive valley floor, or wander over to check out the scenery from Valley View lookout nearby. After fuelling up, step out on the moderately challenging Cliff Top walking track along the valley rim to Govetts Leap lookout.

Drop into Blue Mountains Heritage Centre Theatrette to find out more about the mountains and enjoy the views above Govetts Leap waterfall from Govetts Leap lookout.
