5 Adventures For The Travel Minded In The Blue Mountains

The Blue Mountains of Australia attract adventure seekers and adrenaline junkies from around the world. Located just outside of Sydney, this natural beauty is easily accessible, and yet, you can still easily enjoy all of the comforts and entertainment that Sydney has to offer.

Whether you go it alone, or in an organized tour, this mountainous region offers a huge range of activities. From basic mountain biking and country walks, to serious canyoning and rock climbing

Rock Climbing

After all, you are in the presence of some pretty impressive Mountains. The temptation to climb is something we have from a very young age. It doesn’t matter if you have no experience either, as there are organized events to suite all skill and fitness levels. The views are amazing, the climb great exercise and the memories something to be cherished. There is a certain satisfaction that you get from climbing that is hard to explain, so why not go try it and experience it for yourself.

Bush Survival Training

With the extreme conditions of Australia, it certainly doesn’t hurt to know a thing or two about survival. However, bush survival training is not just about the learning, it’s about experiencing the bush and having an adventure with your group. Sure, you’ll take home some potentially life saving knowledge, but you’ll also take home some very personal and unique memories too.

Bush Walking

bush walkingThis is the Australian term for Hiking. However, this makes for a great follow on from survival training.

Bush walking is Australian after all, which also means that it is likely to be a bit more extreme than a stroll in the UK. Bush walking is to fully experience nature and to try and be a part of it.

However, it can also be undertaken for days (or months) at a time and include camping, rafting and other adventures. If you live for time spent with nature, this is a great way to escape the daily grind.

Abseiling

If you’re going rock climbing, then you may as well do this too. However, even if you hate climbing, abseiling is great fun and far easier! It really gets the blood pumping and you can always just ‘hang out’ and take a few photos too.

4 Wheel Driving | Get off the tour tracks

4 wheel drivingMost of the above activities are … well … pretty darn active.

If you prefer to take it easier, or even just have a less physical day during your adventure during your experience, the off road driving is a great option.

Exhilarating exploration at it’s best. These vehicles can go places others can’t and the way that they get there is pretty fun too.
