Among the mountain towns of New South Wales, Katoomba stands apart for its dramatic position above the Jamison Valley in the Blue Mountains. Echo Point faces eucalyptus-covered sandstone country and the Three Sisters, a trio of weathered rock formations that has become the area’s defining landmark. Katoomba developed with the arrival of the railway in the late 19th century, and its streets retain the character of a long-established mountain resort centre. Nearby, Scenic World occupies the site of a former coal mine and operates a steep railway into the valley.
