This pretty town has numerous crafts and antiques shops, but the area is principally known for its 281m (922-ft.) waterfall, situated in Falls Reserve. On the far side of the falls is the National Pass Walk -- one of the best in the Blue Mountains. It's cut into a cliff face with overhanging rock faces on one side and sheer drops on the other. The views over the Jamison Valley are spectacular. The track takes you down to the base of the falls to the Valley of the Waters. Climbing up out of the valley is quite a bit more difficult, but just as rewarding.
