Federal Pass – The Three Sisters
Highlights
If you love exploring, the Federal Pass track is the perfect adventure! This incredible walk takes you through Jamison Valley, right under the famous Three Sisters rock formation. You’ll walk along the base of the cliffs, passing lush forests, rushing waterfalls, and spotting all kinds of cool wildlife. You might even spot a lyrebird, known for its awesome ability to mimic sounds!
The track is historic too—it was originally built by the Katoomba community and has since been extended all the way to Ruined Castle! It’s an exciting journey with tons of breathtaking views, perfect for taking photos and enjoying nature. If you want a real challenge, climb the stairs back to the top for even more stunning views of the valley.
