Narrowneck Plateau

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Narrowneck Plateau is the eroded remnant of a sandstone layer 1000m above sea level situated immediately south of Katoomba, New South Wales, Australia in the Blue Mountains. Accessible by car over a short dirt road (Glenraphael Drive) from Katoomba, the Narrowneck is a popular walking, bikeriding and climbing location and offers several walking descent routes to the adjacent valleys. The most popular of these is the Golden Stairs - a rough descent of approximately 200m to join Federal Pass. This opens up the Jamison valley for popular day walks to sites such as Mount Solitary and the Ruined Castle.
