Good lookouts along the walk. The scenery is stunning, with waterfalls cascading into lush valleys. The trail is well-marked, but it can be steep in places, so wear good shoes. It's worth the effort for the breathtaking views! Excellent hikes and walks if you’re into it.

Lots of walking. Prepare yourself and have lots of water! Don't want to faint because it can get pretty hot.

Wentworth Falls Lookout Point is a must-visit for anyone exploring the Blue Mountains. The views from the lookout are simply breathtaking, offering a panoramic vista of the lush valleys, cascading waterfalls, and rugged cliffs. The walk itself is well-maintained, with clear paths that vary in difficulty, making it accessible for both casual walkers and more seasoned hikers.

The main track to the waterfall is moderate, with some steep sections, but the reward at the end—a close-up view of the stunning Wentworth Falls—is worth every step. There are plenty of spots along the way to pause and take in the scenery or snap some photos.

It's best to visit early in the day to avoid crowds, especially on weekends. Parking can fill up quickly, so arriving early also helps secure a spot. Don't forget to bring water, as there aren't many refill points along the trail. Overall, Wentworth Falls Lookout Point and Walk is a beautiful experience that captures the essence of the Blue Mountains. Highly recommended!

Lots of picnic tables but no trash cans available. Must take garbage with you. Quick walk to lookout from carpark and other longer hikes available from this starting point. Speed bumps leaving the parking lot were excessive and very rough. Make sure to drive way slower over them than the signs suggest.

Amazing experience to do the tracks at wenworth Falls area.
We did the picnic area track and then followed by undercliff track to conservation hut.

Total duration 1.5 to 2 hrs depending upon how much rest you are taking in between.

These tracks can be rated as easy to medium as difficult as some sections will make your heart ❤️ pump a but more :).
Very enjoyable.

We were able to see falls, views, flaura and fauna, and as well as friendly lyrebird along the way.

As usual, other like-minded hikers who are happy to share their experiences.

There are no entry fees. Parking at sometimes hard to get by once it's busy.

Some photos and videos are shared below. Enjoy.

Weekend spent well. Visited the Wentworth falls and did the recommended bush walk.
The falls itself ain’t that far from car park. Moderate grade walk. You can chose how far you want to walk but the more you walk the better views you get and you will see different views of the same waterfall.

Note: Uphill can be daunting so be careful on how much you want to walk.

Stunning views, wasn’t busy either. Track at some parts can be slippery.

Refer to some photos and videos.
Highly recommended

It was a great walk, but you need to be physically fit enough to do quite extended sets of stairs in multiple portions of the descent... and, then, of course, you have to tread the same path uphill. There are lots of great views, but you need to take all the side trips to get them. You should bring a bottle of water, but it is worth the effort!
