The spectacular Gang Gang Falls and the ecosystems of Gang Gang Gorge that they are feeding are unlikely to survive the expansion of underground coal mining, recently approved by the Government. See this unique area whilst you can. Park at GR 398 038. Descend into Gang Gang Canyon and walk all the way through to Gang Gang Tunnels, visiting a cave at about GR 309 400 seen on the previous trip, as well as the cave at GR 405 043. After exploring the Gang Gang Tunnels, turn south and walk to the falls at GR 407 045, whilst inspecting the caves along the way. Continue south to visit Lots Wife and the adjacent cave.

Carolyn L.
(Leader Changed) Carolyn will be leading this walk for Mark Goodson. Walk via Dardanelles and Federal Pass Walking Tracks. One of the classic routes in the Katoomba area past numerous waterfalls and of course those knockout views as we walk below the clifflines between Leura and the Narrowneck. A good walk, especially on a hot day. Some creek crossings so can be slippery in parts. Location: Blue Mountains NP Map: Katoomba 89301S Limit: 15. Best Walk: Wentworth Falls to Katoomba View
