When is the best time to visit the Blue Mountains?
Every month of the year has its own unique character & benefits, but no matter what time of year you visit you won’t be disappointed. In summer the mountains offer a wonderfully temperate escape from Sydney’s often oppressive heat, particularly of an evening – a mountains summer night is simply magical! The mid-seasons of Spring & Autumn tend to put on the most spectacular show and are always a firm favourite as the many local parks & gardens are looking their finest. Although winter can be quite chilly, you’ll be fine as long as you bring the right clothing! Winter is actually our ‘high season’ in the mountains. The chance of a snowfall, the crisp & invigorating air, and the opportunity to cosy up with a loved one fireside are all reasons people flock here during the colder months.
