Route Description for Cliff Top Track and Grand Canyon Walk

The Cliff Top Track and Grand Canyon Walk is a must-do hike in Blue Mountains National Park, Australia. Expect lush scenery flanking the path, cool stone steps adorned with nature, and magical viewpoints peering into Grose Valley. This walk is a moderately challenging, half-day adventure.
