The absolute best way to unwind in the Blue Mountains. Highly recommend adding a massage to your Bath House experience. When I went here for my birthday with a friend we combined it with High Tea at the Hydro Majestic beforehand for the ultimate day of indulgence.

Food Scene
Best take away in the Blue Mountains (in our opinion). If you like a bit of spice you can't go past the special BN Chicken and Prawn with chilli stir fry.

This is a great track to walk along and the entry is only two streets away from our house. We've taken our younger kids down, although there are many stairs. It's peaceful at the bottom and nice to take your shoes off and splash in the water for a moment.
