Echo Point lookout is managed by Blue Mountains City Council and is located on the boundary of Blue Mountains National Park. Part of the Greater Blue Mountains Area World Heritage Property, the Three Sisters is an iconic formation that you must see at least once in your lifetime. There are different versions of the Aboriginal story of the Three Sisters, but what you’re bound to agree with is how truly spectacular it is. Standing proudly in the land of the Gundungurra and Darug People, the traditional custodians of this declared Aboriginal Place, the imposing Three Sisters is best seen from Echo Point lookout, just outside the national park, on the edge of the plateau above. These three weathered sandstone peaks, formed thousands of years ago through erosion, are set among the cliffs of the Jamison Valley. From the lookout, you’ll be able to see the Ruined Castle and Mount Solitary. A new gathering place (amphitheatre) has been created at the lookout, in consultation with the Dharug and Gundungurra Peoples, to provide an impressive and immersive experience for all those who visit the site. It is a space, on the eastern side of the Echo Point platform, for about 70 people. The amphitheatre has an etched 'Map of Country' in the stage area, which represents the significant waterways within Dharug and Gundungurra Ngurra (Country), in the Blue Mountains.
Other stunning new features at the site include LED lights, which have been placed in the stage that mirror four constellations of the night sky.
An elevated and night-lit accessible boardwalk has also reopened the link to The Prince Henry Cliff Walk and allowed renewed access to the Prince of Wales Lookout.
