Public Transport

Having a car in the Blue Mountains offers a far greater opportunity to see the sights, but travelling by public transport to your destination offers a relaxing alternative. An efficient rail service takes you directly from Sydney Airport to Central Railway Station. Shuttle buses from the airport also take you to Central Station. From here, trains serviced by Transport NSW take you to the Blue Mountains: Wentworth Falls, Leura, Katoomba, Blackheat, Parramatta, Westmead, Penrith and Springwood. They run regularly and more frequently during peak commuter times. Once you arrive in the Blue Mountains, there are various transport options. You can take a red double-decker Explorer Bus to the top 30 attractions with a ticket that gives you all-day access to the hop-on, hop-off bus. The Blue Mountains Bus Company operates the hop-on, hop-off Trolley Tours around the Katoomba and Leura areas and a public transport system. You can also reserve seats for a bus to the Jenolan Caves.
