Itinerary and highlights

At Featherdale Wildlife Park, we get close and personal with hundreds of native Australian wildlife: kangaroos, koalas, wallabies, wombats, emus, penguins, dingoes, snakes, crocodiles, birds etceteras.

We aim to arrive early, so we have the Park to ourselves before the crowds get here!

The Blue Mountains Drive (BMD) is a scenic drive along the Jamison Valley, passing many lookouts.

Start of a 1.5 to 2 hour circuit walk in the Jamison Valley (pending on the weather and guests' fitness).

Alternative walks visit the Leura Cascades.

Iconic sight of that part of the Blue Mountains.

Offering the best views onto Narrowneck, Boars Head and the Megalong Valley.

One of the best views of the Blue Mountains NP, offering spectacular views over the Grose Valley.

Another great lookout is offered from Anvil Rock. This lookout is a little easier to walk to (less steps).
