👍👍 Awesome experience to walk to the top of Australia! We used the cable ski ride up from Thredbo and then walked to the top. We had a magic clear day in April with some snow left on the ground from the weekend before.

👍👍 I’m not a hiker but I LOVED this hike. The views up the top are amazing and it’s a great place to have a mid-walk picnic.

👍 A pretty short track to several waterfalls. At the time we went it was closed at the half way point due to the recent high rainfall. So we went to all but Adelina falls. Also would be a nice spot to have a swim, when it's not cold.

👍👍 I recently hiked the Valley of the Waters in the Blue Mountains and it was an absolute delight. (I may have ignored the do not enter sign).
