<p>
The plan is to walk
from <a href="https://www.scenicworld.com.au">Scenic World</a>
down the Furber Steps along Federal Pass (underneath
the <a href="https://www.bluemts.com.au/info/thingstodo/threesisters/">Three
Sisters</a>), up Amphitheatre Track, past
the <a href="https://www.walkmyworld.com/posts/leura-cascades/">Leura
Cascades</a> and end up at Leura Cascades picknick area.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Itinerary:</strong>
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<strong>08:15</strong> meet at Central Station Platform 5 to
take the 8:24 train to Lithgow, arrive Katoomba 10:29.<br/> For
those staying at the Summit venue (Potts Point Holiday Inn),
King's Cross station is practically next door.
Take the 07:54 train to Cronulla (or any train going towards the
city, the train after should still be fine if you hurry up), it's three
stops to Central.<br/> You can use any credit card to swipe
yourself through the gates. At Central follow the signs to
Platform 5 (don't go through any swipe gates!)
</li>
<li>
From Katoomba station we'll take the bus or taxis to Scenic World (2.5km).
</li>
<li>
The actual walk is 6km and should take less than two hours walking time
(practically it'll be more like three as there are nice views on
the way). Total descent (steep but easy track, plus some stairs)
is 370m, total ascent (steep-ish but also easy track) is 320m.
</li>
<li>
From Leura Cascades Picnic Area we'll take taxis to Leura
Station (or 25' walk if you haven't had enough).
</li>
<li>
Train back to Central departs twice an hour (x:26 and x:41) and
takes two hours.
</li>
<li>
Back at Central sometime between 16:30 and 18:30.
</li>
</ul>

<p>
<strong>Note:</strong>
The <a href="https://www.theweathernetwork.com/en/city/au/new-south-wales/katoomba/14-days/">weather
forecast</a> from this distance (4
October) isn't great, we have to expect rain, but it shouldn't be
so bad that we can't go. But keep in mind that the track may be
muddy in places, so don't take your best shoes!
</p>

<p>
<strong>Important:</strong> Let <a title="gernot@sel4.systems"
href="mailto:gernot@sel4.systems">Gernot</a>
know if you're coming so we can make sure we've
got everyone when we take the train!
