THE GOD OF HIKING sculpted a MASTERPIECE, and it's called: “HANGING ROCK”

THE GOD OF HIKING sculpted a MASTERPIECE, and it's called: “HANGING ROCK”

Sat, Nov 14, 10:30 PM
From WE HIKE. WE WALK... to the BAR. Social Sessions in Sydney
4.9

To think that 3 Sisters is all the tourist rage in Blue Mountains when an easy 5kms Trail Hike takes you to a **HANGING ROCK** destination that can only be described as… *Stunning. Magical. Magnificent. Dangerous (can be). Unforgettable.* **The best view in all of The Blue Mountains? Hanging Rock is absolutely incredible.** Let’s hike it, and let’s add “Grotto Canyon”… a hidden, cool-calm waterfall in a cave-like setting. **THE HIKE. HANGING ROCK (pic on left)** Hanging Rock… last weekend, I didn’t know what to expect when I first hiked it. Sure, I’d seen the photos / videos, and it looked impressive. My advice to you? *Ignore the photos.* It’s so, so much more amazing in person. The sheer rock faces are incredible to be close to. The contrasting rock colours with the background green-ish Blue Mountains is so picturesque… 20minutes at Hanging Rock is a destination you won’t forget. And I wanna see it again. As far as easy hikes go in The Blue Mountains this one is it. It’s a flat 5kms out. 5kms back (we’ll move with passion). It’s a lovely fire trail journey with wildflowers and views in the distance…. And then? You can sense Hanging Rock is about to appear. And when it does, it’s “WOW!!!!!!” At this point the hike down brings some adventure… safety is key, but it’s all proper fun and amazing photos. **LUNCH.** Spikes Bistro is a great spot on Blackheath Golf Course for lunch and a post-hike beer. I’ve gotten to know the owner – the nicest Sri Lankan family, and their food is really good with top (they always give us the best table on the balcony) views over the golf course. The Sunday roast hit the spot, and the green curry is my order this time… These are damn good people, and I love giving them our business. **[JOIN WHATSAPP BY CLICKING ON THIS LINK. NO JOIN? NO HIKE. WE COMMUNICATE IN WHATSAPP.](https://chat.whatsapp.com/FzBLoAqHcUbBCgrV4EF4HT)** **HIKE #2. THE GROTTO (pic on right, yes I took it)** I’ll write less. Just grab my arm for this quick (it's Sunday after all) descent / ascent hike… what a treat. Many waterfalls we’ve seen are quite exposed. The Grotto? Hike down. Hike down again. Hike low through a bit of a cave, and there it is… a waterfall and rockpool hidden like a movie-esque scene where Ryan Reynolds & Scarlett Johanssen embrace, ass grab, and French Kiss in the cheesy final scene. It’s beautiful. *Drivers… we love you. We need you (of course you’ll be compensated). 6 cars, 3 passengers in each. 24 hikers max.* Ready yourself for a great fucking day. See you soon. MJ **THE RULES.** A) Safety. Be safe! No insta photos on cliff faces. That's out. B) Be fit, healthy, and able to keep up - exercise pace while chatting and laughing with other hikers. C) $15 Cash or PayID or PayPal. D) Be on time. If you're late, use the map to catch up. E) No shows and morning cancellations are slack. If you're in that group from past hikes, sorry in advance if you're moved into the "No" column. F) BYO water, towel, Band Aid, and snacks. G) Be fun. Active. Social. And ready to meet some new folks. H) Newbies. Feel free to join! But if a hiker that's been great with attendance asks to join, you might be moved into the "Not Going" column - apologies in advance for that. **In pressing the “Attend” button for this hike, you acknowledge that:** a) You are healthy and fit to complete the hike describe; b) You have read and will follow [NSW National Parks Bushwalking Safety Guidelines](https://www.nationalparks.nsw.gov.au/safety/bushwalking-safety) for this hike; c) You have no chronic / underlying health issues that deter you from completing this hike; d) You understand your host is just that – your host, not a professional hiker – and that you and you alone are responsible for your hiking health, safety, and wellness; e) You’ve been advised to download the “Emergency Plus App” and f) You’ve been advised to obtain individual [hiking insurance from 1Cover](https://www.1cover.com.au/adventure-travel-insurance/hiking-trekking/?utm_source=google&utm_source_platform=gads&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=13564994076&utm_term=adventure%20travel%20insurance&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=13564994076&gbraid=0AAAAAD_bfRAu6Io5ZkHeiIYCP_evtsQ_z&gclid=CjwKCAjwz5nGBhBBEiwA-W6XRLm8Itjn1am8sdPMxVhBtRmsDOWkolLlVATJcXW5jW-9JgB7hb9kMhoC7M0QAvD_BwE).
