Best Three Sisters Tours from Auckland

These sibling rock formations tower above the Jamison Valley, their color and hue shifting perceptibly as the sun approaches the horizon. Legend has it the Three Sisters fell in love with three brothers from a neighboring tribe. The two tribes took up arms after the brothers decided to capture them by force, whereupon a tribal elder turned the sisters to stone to protect them. They can be viewed by taking a trail from nearby Echo Point. From there the trail takes you the Giant Stairway, 800 steps down to the valley floor below. For those wishing to stay longer and experience all the Blue Mountains have to offer, nearby Katoomba offers accommodations ranging from hostel to resort & spa.
