If you’ve got something to shout about, then head for Pulpit Rock lookout near Blackheath in Blue Mountains National Park. Jutting out on a dramatic blade of rock, you might be lost for words or end up singing the praises of the sweeping views of vast forested gorges and magnificent Grose Valley below.
Unpack the picnic basket and enjoy a remote lunch on this isolated pinnacle, far from the popular tourist spots. There are several lookouts from this prime position, affording an almost 360˚ panorama across the dramatic cliff lines to Mount Banks and distant mountains.
Start at Pulpit Rock Rd, Blackhealth NSW. This road is unsealed but it's smooth and suitable for standard domestic vehicle types (not just 4WD). At the end of the road there is a loop with signage, this is the parking area. Note Blue Mountain Taxis also come out here.
Which maps cover the area?
From the parking area follow the signage and path down the stairs. Keeping following the path until you reach the lookout.
