Adjoining the Blue Mountains National Park and stretching between Katoomba and the Jenolan Caves, this park covers 68,000 hectares of plateau and valley separated by the region's trademark sandstone cliffs. There are several long-distance walks in the park, but make sure you take the requisite precautions. Other shorter walks leave from Kanangra Wells, accessed by road south of Jenolan.
