Discover the Greater Blue Mountains through Lithgow NSW.

Getting beyond the usual Blue Mountains tourist trail has never been easier. Board the train from Sydney Central and watch the city give way to mountain villages, sandstone escarpments and sweeping valleys before arriving directly in Lithgow - where your Explore Lithgow guide will be ready to begin your day. From there, we take you deeper into the Greater Blue Mountains, visiting the Famous Lost City, Zig Zag Rail and Secret Creek Wildlife Sanctuary. Instead of spending your day moving between the busiest Sydney-facing attractions, you’ll discover a quieter side of the region: dramatic landscapes, native wildlife, heritage places and local stories, with the time and space to actually enjoy them. You’ll also experience a community that is proud to share where it comes from. Lithgow has been shaped by rail, mining, industry and wilderness, and today the region is building a new chapter around tourism. Our scenic tours are intentionally designed to bring visitors into town, connect them with local attractions and businesses, and ensure more of the benefit of tourism stays within the community. Expect smaller groups, genuine local knowledge and a relaxed pace. There’s time to stop, take photos, watch wildlife, ask questions and connect with the landscape rather than simply ticking off attractions. Your journey doesn’t start when you get on the bus - it starts when you board the train in Sydney.
