Salote's Pool

Terrace Falls, Salote's Pool.

South Hazelbrook, Blue Mountains NSW Australia.

 

Six Aboriginal language groups are the traditional owners of the Greater Blue Mountains World Heritage Area:

Darug.

Gundungurra.

Wanaruah.

Wiradjuri.

Darkinjung.

Tharawal.

 

I acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the land on which I work and live, and recognise their continuing connection to land, water and community. I pay respect to Elders past, present and emerging.

 

 

Walking tracks in the mid mountains are generally not as strenuous as those in the upper mountains. Try the gentle walks of South Hazelbrook where for over a hundred and fifteen years European walkers and nature lovers have been inspired by the majestic scenery of Terrace Falls Reserve. Here you will find a historic and complex layout of walking tracks.

 

Thoughtful walkers will appreciate the effort that went into creating the beautiful stone steps and gently-sloping paths that give access into this wonderland of tumbling waters, sandy ‘beaches’, still pools, peaceful rainforests, and strange rocks.

 

The old track layout had eight bridges providing easy access over Terrace Falls and Bedford Creeks at various points. All have been lost through floods or bushfires, but the watchful eye can spot remains at creek crossings.
