“Located just east of Katoomba on the edge of the Blue Mountains National Park, Leura is arguably the prettiest village in the Blue Mountains. It’s resplendent with character-filled heritage homes, glorious cool climate gardens and a National Trust-classified town centre lined with cherry trees that sends Instagrammers into a frenzy during blossom season.” (VisitNSW)

Lockleys Pylon is an easy walk with jaw dropping views from the top. Whilst the early part of the trail might not blow you away, the section from the ridge to the pylon certainly will. You’ll have panoramic views of Mount Hay, Mount Banks and the Grose Valley.
