Blue Mountains

i love that area
i think its the hidden city closer to lithgow but dont take my word i am suremore will add used to live up that way many relatives still do this was more an area i bushwalked rather than drive but i do remeber and article where you drive through a small tunnel(hidden city?) and a few others up higher oh yeah and the glow worms if the track is still open for a night drive (good if you have kids) i heard they shortened that track last year so it may be a longer walk if you read mags it's in many 4 x 4 mags for day trips or grab a guide book
.
from memory (somewhat like a clogged up sieve) i think thereis one on the Nissan website (terknotes).
but of course you should only tackle these tracks in a Nissan .(jk)
not sure about a zx.

There are good views around Blackheath but they are 2WD - out to Perrys Lookdown etc, there is also the Glow Worm Tunnel out from Lithgow and Newnes (bushfires have recently gone thru some of this country), out from Jenolan Caves you can go to Kanangra Walls (top views) then go thru the Kowmung River area (4WD) then to the south. There is also Yerranderie out form Oberon/ Kanangra Walls area.Cheers, Beddo

Simon,

Don't know when you're planning on heading to the mountains, but I'm doing a day trip up there on Saturday (17th) from the Zig Zag Railway at 11am with a group of people from another online forum. Probably be doing the powerlines track behind the railway, quick stop at Lost City for those who haven't seen it (the road is now closed and you have to walk the last 800m - which of course was the best part of the whole track), and then go exploring a few other tracks for the afternoon.

Simon, the "Blue Mountains" is a huge area stretching from north-west of Sydney to waaaayy down south. You could spend months (literally) exploring the BM National Park. What particular region of the BMs are you heading for?Be good, or be quick.

Have a look at post 1492 on this forum. Some easy tracks you can do all in a day.

Also, give the Blue Mountains National Park office at Blackheath a call. They are a good source of info and will advise of track conditions and closures.

get hold of the 4wd treks close to sydney book form boiling billy publications and you will see a few trips in BM area. I did the newnes, glowworm tunnel trip which s fairly eay. Also tried the first part of the baal bone gap trek (past the blackfellows hand trail) and the trail was fairly steep. definitely need low range and some good clearance in the 4by. had to turn back though as it was getting dark.

will be visiting lithgow later this month so i will try and complete the baal bone trek.
