day trip from Sydney to Blue Mountains

[jjduck]

We are an active couple in our 70/80's and will be staying in the CBD area for a week in Nov. 2024.  We are thinking of taking the train to Blue Mountains for the day.

 

What do you suggest for our itinerary for short hikes and sight seeing?  Our research is overwhelming with so many things to see.  What would be the top three, for example.

 

We went to Taronga Zoo last year, Your opinions of Featherdale zoo? (not on the same day)

 

Any tips greatly appreciated,

 

Thanks!

I liked Featherddale Zoo better

The Blue Mountains is a nice day trip.  It is easy to do on your own, too. You can hike along the trails and see the Three Sisters, and other points of interest.
