Lincoln's Rock

This incredible lookout gives you your first all-encompassing views of Jamison Valley, which change colour throughout the day as the sun and clouds move overhead. The drawcard of Lincoln’s Rock is the impressive optical-illusion photo you can get as a memento, which makes it appear as though you’re sitting literally on the edge of a cliff. In truth you are, except that there’s a fairly safe ledge just below that would stop you from falling very far! However we do state that you take photos at your own risk

Duration 90 minutes
5

The Three Sisters

The famous Three Sisters rock formation is one of the most iconic images in Australia. The views overlooking the Jamison Valley are incredible. As well as getting that classic photo, you'll hear the stories of the local Aboriginal legends.

Duration 30 minutes
