 A nice walk if you are in the area - probably not worth the drive just for this walk, but worth doing before Pulpit Rock lookout. | |

 Collier's Causeway is a fantastic walk with many views of the Kanimbla Valley and varied scenery. The track mainly travels under the imposing cliffs between Centennial Glen and Porters Pass, with waterfalls, ferny glens and heath flowers along the way. The track is a great one-way trip from Bundarra St to Burton Ave with access to many climbing areas along the way. | |

 The track to Fort Rock is a short hour long track which gives a taster for what lies beneath the cliff line. The track is a return journey from the end of Bundarra St directly to Fort Rock. From the top of the rock you can see into the Kanimbla Valley and by taking the side trip out to the cliff line west of Fort Rock even better views are gained over the valley and the cliffs around Porters Pass. | |

 This is a bit of a classic walk first established in 1907, taking moderately fit walkers along the path of a canyon. In places, the track follows a cut path halfway up the cliff, keeping you out of the most dangerous section of the canyon. The creek can flood after heavy rain, so check with National Parks before doing this walk. The cool temperatures in the Canyon make this walk particularly special on warmer days. | |

 This walk takes in a fabulous view across the Grose Valley. It includes the options of the upper lookout, providing the easiest access, and the lower lookout, which involves a more daring walk. The upper lookout gives the best views across the valley, while the middle lookout gives similar scenic views. The lower lookout, however, has great views of the cliffs around the Grose Valley from a unique perspective. | |

 This extended version of the Walls Ledge Track begins at Bundarra St and continues down past a side trip to Fort Rock. The track sports a small waterfall and some cliff-base walking. It also rises above to follow the same cliffs back to Centennial Rd car park. The track takes in awesome scenes of the sheer cliffs of western Blackheath. | |
|
|
 This is a short but sweet circuit walk above then below the cliff line. The track passes under the cliff line for some time with views over the Kanimbla Valley. Climbers will love the great access to the walls, while walkers will enjoy the scenery and flowers in the heath. | |
|
|
 This circuit walk uses nearly the whole of west Blackheath's walking tracks. The track follows the cliff lines both above and below in some areas with amazing views of the Kanimbla Valley, rock features and waterfalls. The track takes in a cross section of plants, with defined changes through the cliff passes. | |

 Not worth the drive just for this walk. The cave is interesting, so try this short walk if you are already doing Anvil Rock track. The cave is much taller than it is deep, and there are some nice rock formations. | |
