Lincoln’s Rock Is Closed – But Your Blue Mountains Tour Is Still Incredible

If you’re planning a Blue Mountains tour from Sydney, you may have seen the recent Lincoln’s Rock closed update.

Also known as Wedding Cake Rock, this popular photo spot has been temporarily closed due to safety concerns and erosion. While it’s understandably disappointing for some visitors, here’s what you need to know:

Your Blue Mountains experience with Rocky Road Tours and Travels is still 100% packed with iconic destinations.

In fact, many guests end up enjoying the day even more.

What’s Still Included in Your Blue Mountains Tour?

Our private Blue Mountains tour continues to include all the region’s must-see highlights:

✅ Three Sisters at Echo Point✅ Scenic World Blue Mountains✅ Jamison Valley lookouts✅ Wentworth Falls✅ Sydney Zoo visit (optional add-on)

Lincoln’s Rock was always just one viewpoint. The Blue Mountains offer dozens of spectacular scenic lookouts — and we focus on the best of them.

The Three Sisters – The True Icon of the Blue Mountains

No Blue Mountains day trip is complete without visiting the Three Sisters at Echo Point.

Overlooking the vast Jamison Valley, this world-famous rock formation is the most photographed landmark in the region. From Echo Point, guests enjoy:

• Panoramic valley views

• Incredible photo opportunities

• Aboriginal cultural storytelling

• Easy access viewing platforms

For many travellers, this is the true highlight of the entire Sydney to Blue Mountains tour.

Scenic World – Experience the Mountains From Every Angle

Your itinerary still includes the option to experience Scenic World Blue Mountains, one of Australia’s most unique attractions.

Here you can ride:

• The Scenic Railway (the steepest passenger railway in the world)

• The Scenic Skyway across the Jamison Valley

• The Scenic Cableway

• Elevated rainforest boardwalks

With Lincoln’s Rock off the schedule, we can often enjoy Scenic World at a more relaxed pace — making your Blue Mountains sightseeing experience even better.

Wentworth Falls – More Time for Natural Beauty

Instead of one quick photo stop, we now spend more quality time at breathtaking locations like Wentworth Falls.

This stunning waterfall and valley lookout offers:

• Expansive views across the Jamison Valley

• Fresh mountain air

• Cliff-top walking tracks

• Peaceful, scenic moments away from heavy crowds

Many guests say this becomes their unexpected favourite part of the tour.

Sydney Zoo – Start Your Day With Australian Wildlife

Our Blue Mountains itinerary can also include a visit to Sydney Zoo, where guests can see:

• Kangaroos

• Koalas

• Wombats

• Tasmanian Devils

• Native Australian birds and reptiles

For international visitors, especially, combining Sydney Zoo with the Blue Mountains tour creates the ultimate Australian experience in one day.
