Blackheath is a charming, friendly mountain village so far untouched by the bustling crowds drawn to the beauty of the Blue Mountains.
Blackheath, the highest part of the mountains experiences four beautiful seasons and each have their appeal: Winter for the occassional snowfall, Yulefest & cosy nights by the fire; Autumn for the beautiful red and yellow foliage;
Spring time brings an abundance of blooms from the famous rhododendrons & azaleas; and Summer is a refreshing escape from the heat.
Scenic walks are just footsteps away, enjoy the views of the Megalong Valley or Govett's Leap, which rival the famous nearby "Three Sisters" in their beauty. The whole of the world heritage listed Blue Mountains National Park is there for you to explore.
