Mount Riverview, New South Wales
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mount Riverview is a town off the Great Western Highway about 2 km NE of Blaxland in the Lower Blue Mountains, New South Wales, 70 kilometres west of Sydney, Australia.
Mt Riverview borders the townships/suburbs of Warrimoo, Blaxland, Emu Heights and Yellow Rock.
Mount Riverview offers some stunning views over the Sydney area, including views of Centrepoint Tower some 100 kilometres away. It has a general store, a cafe, two churches, a youth centre, a public school, tennis courts, a water tank, a Chinese restaurant, two parks and a local fire brigade under the jurisdiction of the Rural Fire Service. Despite the town's facilities, land in Mount Riverview remains cheaper than almost all the rest of the City of Blue Mountains due to its inaccessibility by train[citation needed].
Mt. Riverview has very good access to the surrounding bush, as well as many lookouts with beautiful views of scenery. Walking tracks to Winmalee are also present. Olympic Parade and Elizabeth Rd. are the two main access points.
