About this experience
Step aboard the Nepean Belle Paddlewheeler and journey through the breathtaking Nepean Gorge, where time and nature have sculpted towering sandstone cliffs into a spectacular backdrop. As you glide through this untouched part of the Blue Mountains National Park, relax and take in the serenity and snap unforgettable photos of the dramatic rock formations shaped over centuries.
Keep your eyes peeled for native Australian wildlife—you might spot wallabies, lizards, eagles, cormorants, mountain goats, and even a local family of white-breasted sea eagles soaring above the water.
Indulge in a delicious, hearty lunch served on a shared platter at your own private table. Our meals are all prepared fresh onboard for every cruise and our set seasonal menus highlight fresh, local ingredients. Menus can be viewed on our website.
Relax, unwind, and enjoy a truly unforgettable river adventure aboard the Nepean Belle.
