Southern Highlands Sightseeing Tour
Hidden drops, scenic stops: Waterfall hunt.
This experience is designed for guests who prefer a slower, more relaxed way to explore the Southern Highlands. We visit scenic lookouts, impressive waterfalls, and calm natural places that are easy to reach. Walks are short and on well-made paths, with plenty of time to stop, take photos, and enjoy the views. This tour is perfect if you want to experience the Southern Highlands in a comfortable, peaceful way, without long walks or difficult terrain. Suitable for all fitness levels.
The South Coast–Illawarra is easy to reach by train, just over an hour from Sydney. The train ride provides a stunning scenic experience along what’s known as the Sea Cliff Coast. Tours depart from any train station between Thirroul and Wollongong.

Southern Highlands Explore Tour – Your Day of Waterfalls, Lookouts & Scenic Landscapes
Pick-up between 8:30 and 9:00am from your hotel, motel, or train station, anywhere between Thirroul and Wollongong.
We wind up the escarpment into the cool, green Southern Highlands, beginning at Hindmarsh Lookout, where sweeping views stretch across the cliffs and forests of Kangaroo Valley. A short stroll then brings us to Belmore Falls, admired from viewing platforms perched high above the valley.
Next, we visit Fitzroy Falls in Morton National Park — one of the Highlands’ most iconic sights — where the falls cascade 80 metres into a majestic sandstone gorge, surrounded by wild escarpment and endless valley views. No matter how many times I come here, it still takes my breath away.
Lunch is in the charming village of Robertson, the “Green Heart” of the Highlands. Surrounded by rolling dairy country and rich red soil, and home of the famous Big Potato.
We finish at the spectacular Carrington Falls in Budderoo National Park, where the river thunders through a dramatic gorge — a memorable finale before a relaxed journey back down the mountain.
This thoughtfully paced experience suits those who appreciate breathtaking scenery, iconic landmarks, and a relaxed exploration of the Southern Highlands.
