Katoomba to Jenolan via Bathurst - map & directions
If you are driving generally west from Sydney, you can reach Edith Road, by a long, but rewarding, detour, which takes you west into the rolling Central Tablelands and then south onto the Oberon Plateau, the highest part of the Blue Mountains. This way of getting to Jenolan from the direction of Sydney, is the longest, but it is also the most straightforward.
