Megalong Creek is a waterfall lover's paradise with so many gorgeous cascades and falls with sculptured rocks and pools, all within a place of granite and solitude. We will also follow the Coxs River downstream to where the McKanes Falls (Bowenfels) Bridge is reached as this section of the Coxs River is also in the granite belt and has numerous falls too. All worth a photo and a swim if you're feeling in the mood. Rock hopping and off-track. Location: Blue Mountains National Park Map: Hampton 89304S Limit: 12.

Photography | A trip that has a strong focus on encouraging people to capture photographs.](/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/camera.png) Without a doubt this is one of my favourite walks in the Blue Mountains! Why you may well ask? Stunning scenery with surprisingly wild country so close to Sydney, with some superb walking along Erskine Creek, which is rich in pools and cascades, as well as rugged clifflines. One of the pools is about a 100 metres long and it's a fantastic place for a swim of course! Also, expect to see lots of spring blossoms along the way as we meander down the creek. Basically a good hike for hedonists and nature lovers that won't fail to satisfy your inner cravings for the wild side of life! Rock scrambling. Location: Blue Mountains National Park Map: Penrith 90303N Limit: 20.

![Swim | A trip that involves swimming Swim | A trip that involves swimming](/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/swim.png) One of the Blue Mountains classic walks is now back on the agenda with the opening of the newly upgraded Horse Track. On this hike you can expect to see waratahs flowering along with many other blossoms, and for those who are stoic enough, there's plenty of swimming opportunities along the Grose River. Location: Blue Mountains National Park Map: CMA Katoomba and Mt Wilson Limit: 12.

![Swim | A trip that involves swimming Swim | A trip that involves swimming](/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/swim.png) I really can't think of a better walk for waterfalls than these 2 closely connected trails, as there is at least a dozen falls worth seeking out and having a dip in, all within a lush rainforest environment. Come along and experience this stunning location! Rock scrambling. Location: Macquarie Pass National Park Map: Albion Park 90281N Limit: 20.

When the heat of summer is upon us, where do you head? To a Blue Mountains canyon to cool off and revive body and soul! On this trip we will experience not 1 but 3 canyons with Du Faur Canyon being the main course. The equally spectacular, but much shorter October Creek being the entree, and the Joes Canyon the dessert for what promises to be a superb day swimming, paddling and savouring these amazingly beautiful locations. I can promise you an amazing aquatic time! You'll need a helmet, wetsuit and I recommend a flotation device such as a surfmat, and life jacket as there are some longish swims involved. Rock scrambling/off-track walking/swimming. Location: Blue Mountains NP Map: Mt Wilson Limit: 12.
