Blue Mountains National Park in Australia is a stunning natural reserve located in New South Wales, approximately 80 kilometers west of Sydney. Renowned for its dramatic scenery, the park features rugged cliffs, deep valleys, and vast eucalyptus forests that give the region its characteristic blue hue, thanks to the oil released from the trees. The park is part of the Greater Blue Mountains Area, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and offers a wealth of outdoor activities including hiking, rock climbing, and abseiling. Iconic landmarks within the park include the Three Sisters rock formation, Wentworth Falls, and the Jenolan Caves.
