A short hike along a fairly flat trail to the most spectacular lookout which you will most likely have to yourself. Be warned it is a lookout over sheer cliffs with no rails.

One of my favourite Blue Mountains hikes. It is a drive on a dirt road but if you're up for that it's well worth it.
Lockleys Pylon Walking Track

Spectacular lookout over Boar's Head and Narrow Neck Plateau. Strangely very scenic with the blackened and burnt banksia's and other native trees near the lookout.
