Hellooooo!

Caity and I (Sudarshan) will be leading a beginner-friendly hike through the Porters Pass and Colliers Causeway track in Blackheath.

It is possibly my favourite day hike in the Blue Mountains, featuring waterfalls, a micro-canyon, an optional swim, rainforests, dry heath, clifftop, and cliffside paths!!!

It has a total length of about 7km and elevation gain of 400m, and I expect it to take about 5 hours.

This trail will require good fitness as there are steep sections, however we will not be in a rush.

Check out the track here – https://hikingtheworld.blog/2023/05/14/ar-porters-pass-colliers-causeway

 

What to bring:

  • Sturdy shoes!
    • This is not your average tourist track and there are a few less maintained sections so hiking boots would be great.
  • Small-medium sized backpack to hold your belongings
  • At least 2L of water **super important to have enough water!!**
  • Lunch and snacks for the day
  • Sun protection: sunscreen + hat
  • Change of clothes / swimmers / towel (if you wish to swim)
  • Any personal medication you may need

 

So, if you are keen for a hike, please tell us your hiking experience so far, if you could be an animal for a day what you would choose (just so we know you’ve read all this information) and whether you have a car in your comment below… and get in early before signups are full.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me, Sudarshan – my facebook is here (yes it’s under a pseudonym)
