Govetts Leap

Govetts Leap is one of the main attractions in Blackheath. It sits on the edge of the Blue Mountains National Park and commands fantastic views across the Grose Valley. It is hard to imagine just how steep the drops are into the valley and even the most hardy could suffer vertigo. Across from the look-out is the Bridal Veil waterfall and there are tracks to both the base and the top if this. We made our way down about half way down to the base but had left it a bit late in the day to go all the way. Instead we walked around to the top of the falls and were rewarded with more great views.

There are plenty of tracks in the area to suit all levels of fitness, and how much time you have to spend.
