[2025 Katoomba Attraction] Travel Guide for Echo Point Lookout (Three Sisters) (Updated Jun)

🌏🇦🇺 Review of a cute trip in the land of kangaroos, "Australia" 🐨🦘 Hello~ Today we will take you to travel to Australia in a gentle and cute way in the style of people who love nature, mixed with cuteness to the fullest! Let me tell you that this country is not only good for kangaroos and koalas, but also full of magnificent nature, charming cities, chic cafes, and good weather that just walking around makes you happy. 🍃💕 📍 Day 1: Sydney, I'm here! On the first morning... After the plane landed at Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport, we immediately dragged our bags to our accommodation. We chose to stay near Circular Quay because it was easy to travel and was very close to many landmarks! After packing up, we went for a walk at the Sydney Opera House. We've seen it in the pictures countless times, but today, seeing it with our own eyes made me feel so happy 🥺 We walked and took pictures and saw a full view of the Harbour Bridge. It was romantic like being in a postcard. In the evening, we stopped by The Rocks Market, which had both cute food and cool handmade products. Walking at sunset is so awesome~ 🌇 📍 Day 2: Blue Mountains is like being in a fairy tale Today we booked a tour to Blue Mountains. We woke up early and drove out of town for about 2 hours to Echo Point viewpoint. We saw the Three Sisters in all their glory! The surrounding mist and nature were so nice 💙 After that, we tried riding the Scenic Railway, which is known as the steepest train in the world! It was like riding a natural roller coaster. (A little scary 555) But it was so much fun. The view when we went down was so beautiful that we couldn't help but exclaim "wow" several times. 🛤️ 📍 Day 3: Dream cafe & shop like an Aussie girl Back in the city, today we had a chill trip to cafe hopping in Surry Hills, which is full of cute shops. Every angle you take a picture from looks like you're on Pinterest. ☕🍰 We stopped by "Bourke Street Bakery", where the bread was so fragrant. The coffee was so good that I had to order more 😍 In the afternoon, I went shopping at the Queen Victoria Building and Pitt Street Mall. I got a lot of souvenirs. But what I was most excited about was finding cute local brand shops that you can't find in Thailand! If you like handmade or Scandinavian-style things, this is a must-visit place! 🎁 📍 Day 4: Say goodbye to Sydney and fly to Melbourne~ After about an hour on a domestic flight, we arrived in Melbourne, a city filled with artistic and creative vibes. 🎨 When we arrived, we went for a walk at Federation Square and crossed the street to take a picture with the red telephone booth at Flinders Street Station, which looks like it came out of England! Then we walked around Hosier Lane to see the colorful street art. We could walk around all day and not get bored~ In the evening, we stopped by Queen Victoria Market to find some delicious food, such as meat pies, donuts with oozing fillings, and rich hot chocolate! ☕🍩 📍 Day 5: Great Ocean Road and the Twelve Apostles Today is called “A day of views that will make you go wow!” We set off early in the morning to drive along the Great Ocean Road 🛣️ The views along the way were indescribable. The coastal road was cool and windy all the way. There were many places to stop and take pictures, such as Loch Ard Gorge and The Grotto, which looked like a painting. 🌊 The highlight was going to see the Twelve Apostles, which, although not yet 12 (some of them were broken by time), were still very beautiful. When the sun set, the light hit the limestone cliffs until they were golden and magical. 🌅✨ 📍 Day 6: A relaxing day with animals 🐨🦘 Today, we organized a trip to Healesville Sanctuary, which is not far from Melbourne. We got to see a kangaroo up close, so we secretly named it “the fat bunny” 555. We also saw a koala sleeping soundly in a tree. It had big eyes and soft fur that was so cute it melted my heart. 🥺 In addition, there were wombats, penguins, and many other native animals. If the kids come to visit here, they will definitely scream. Because it's really too cute to resist~ We stopped to eat ice cream at the entrance. The Passionfruit flavor is sooo good! 🍦 📍 Day 7: Goodbye Australia… but my heart is still here! On the last day, we took a car back to the airport with the same bag full of souvenirs and a heart full of memories. 💌 Even though it was a short trip, I felt 100% good~ 🇦🇺💕 In conclusion… Australia is a country that is suitable for those who love nature, like peace and quiet but still have a hidden chicness. Whether it's the mountains, the sea, cute animals or the city full of art, everything made this trip one of the most lovely memories in my life. 💗 If anyone has a plan to travel, try choosing Sydney + Melbourne. I guarantee your heart will be full. 🎒✨ ⸻ #TravelAbroad #Australia🇦🇺

Breath taking panoramic view of 3 sisters in Sydney!

📍Echo Point Three Sisters The Three Sisters in the Blue Mountains, where the legend of the sad three sisters is embedded. If you visit at sunset, the light will shine into the Three Sisters, making it even more beautiful. It's a great place for a light walk, and there are also convenient facilities such as restrooms and souvenir shops, so I definitely recommend visiting! #Overseas travel #Sydney travel #Echo Point Three Sisters

When I visited Echo Point in Australia, the natural scenery there was truly overwhelming. In particular, I was able to take in the surrounding scenery at a glance while riding the monorail. The harmony of the lush forest and the endless valley was fantastic. My grandparents really loved it😍🩷 At the Echo Point lookout, I could see the magnificent scenery of the Blue Mountains and the Three Sisters, and I felt as if my mind was purified by the peace that nature gave me. Just being in the middle of nature with the cool breeze made me feel like my travel fatigue was gone. If you love nature, I highly recommend this place to visit!😊 #January travel support event #Echo Point #Australia travel

The Three Sisters is an attraction in Katoomba, the heart of the World Heritage-listed Blue Mountains and the gateway to this spectacular natural attraction in NSW, Australia. It is an iconic formation standing proudly in the land of the Gundungurra and Darug People, the traditional custodians of this declared Aboriginal Place. The Three Sisters is best seen from Echo Point lookout, on the edge of the plateau above. These three weathered sandstone peaks, formed thousands of years ago through erosion, are set among the cliffs of the Jamison Valley. The most convenient and hassle free way to get to the Blue Mountains is via train which takes 2 hours from Sydney Central Station. Trains depart Sydney Central Station every half hour until 9am, then every hour afterwards. Once you’re in Katoomba, you can buy the Hop on Hop off Bus from the Tourist Information Centre opposite the Katoomba train station. It takes you to Echo Point and other attractions in the Blue Mountains. A much cheaper option is taking public bus that also goes around the same attractions every half hour between each stops using the Opal travel card. It will take about 3 hours to cover all the attractions in the Blue mountains so it’s best to go early and return to Katoomba for lunch at one of the lovely restaurants or cafes before getting back on the train to Sydney.

Great place to hike
