Explore The Wilder Blue Mountains

Due to the massive response we received to our first Guidebook “This Ain’t The City”, we jumped back in with two new Guidebooks, WILD and EPIC.

This time around every location in each Guidebook features a QR code which takes you directly to a live map on your smartphone. This helps you find the trail easily and safely. The Guidebooks are full of locations and adventures that are perfect for families with

WILD 

The Blue Mountains is hands down one of the most untamed, wild landscapes held within Australia. From the Wild Dog Mountains to the wild rivers of Megalong Valley and beyond.

This Guidebook allows you to explore the wilder aspects of the Blue Mountains and all that is held within its ruggedly lush majesty.

Wild Swimming

Being 100's of km's from the coast doesn't mean there's nowhere to get your kit off and take a cooling plunge in the heat of summer. We spent years exploring and found over 20 of the most beautiful, unique and refreshing natural waterholes, perfect for a lazy summers afternoon splash.

Packrafting

A new and emerging sport, packrafting means carrying an inflatable raft on your back, mountain bike or car, inflating at the bank of a lake, river or creek and exploring areas of the wild inaccessible any other way. We show you how to get started, and our top wild river locations.

Waterfalls

The defining feature of our stunning Mountains home. We love heading out in the rain just to feel small next to the power and majesty of a swollen, raging waterfall. We feature 20 of the most magnificent.

Stargazing

Think the adventure stops when the sun goes down? That's when another dazzling aspect of the Mountains comes to life, thanks to being away from the bright lights of the city. Find one of our fav clifftop locations, lay out a blanket with a thermos of hot choccy and transport yourself.

Canyoning

We love a good canyon and featured some of our regulars in our first Guidebook. This time we've gone deeper and discovered some dazzling gems, worthy of donning a helmet and harness and taking the leap! We show you how to get started.

Trail running

The #lostmtns team is known for their love of thrashing through the bush, training for their next ultramarathon event. But trail running is also the best way of combining fitness with getting amongst the natural elements and clearing the head!
