Take Flight in springtime

Whether you're looking for Father's Day ideas for your adventurous dad or activities to entertain children in the school holidays, Scenic World is must on any Blue Mountains itinerary.

With the weather warming up, Scenic World is the perfect destination from which to explore the World Heritage-listed Blue Mountains.

Set in Katoomba, high on escarpment overlooking the Jamison Valley, Scenic World offers a self-guided nature-based experience for all ages like no other.

Plan your visit and get ready for epic panoramas of wilderness, waterfalls and escarpment.

Discover the thrill of a 52° (128%) incline in open terrain riding the steepest passenger railway in the world, the Scenic Railway.

Glide between cliff tops with 360°views from the Scenic Skyway gazing across Katoomba Falls, the Three Sisters, Mt Solitary and Jamison Valley.

Experience strolling under the canopy of an extraordinary temperate rainforest on the Scenic Walkway.

Observe native flora and fauna, some dating back to the Jurassic era, or explore the site's coal mining history.

Take Flight is a special Scenic World offering that will run during the Spring school holidays. Perfect for entertaining children, it is a free interactive bird show set on the Scenic Walkway, immersed within the Jamison Valley rainforest.

The show is a unique opportunity to witness some of Australia's most incredible bird species in full flight and marvel at how these incredible creatures thrive in the Australian wild.

Built on a foundation of future learning, Take Flight's format entertains as it educates audiences about avian conservation and dispels common misconceptions about how to treat sick and injured birds in the wild.

Take Flight shows will take place at 11am and 1pm daily from September 28 to October 4 and again from October 8-13.

Each show's duration is around 20 minutes and attendance is free with admission to Scenic World, however places are limited, so reserve your spot at the ticket box upon arrival.

Situated adjacent a UNESCO World Heritage-listed site, Scenic World's location, experiences and interactions with the environment are unique.

Scenic World is accredited by Ecotourism Australia as a Green Travel Leader and regularly monitored by the Global Sustainable Tourism Council. Sustainability initiatives on site include rides that generate electricity back into the grid, composting organic food waste and packaging to minimise landfill, and onsite electric vehicle charging for guests.
