Porters Pass & Centennial Glen bushwalk
Hidden away on the western side of Blackheath, Porters Pass is one of the oldest tracks in the Blue Mountains dating back to 1888. This mystery tour takes you along the precipitous Walls Ledge, down the side of a waterfall and across Colliers Causeway. You then zizag up Porters Pass, cut across escarpment heathland and complete your circuit through the dark and mossy Centennial Glen. A great day out and a great way to meet new people.
