Glenbrook to Blaxland
66km to 71km from Sydney

Glenbrook is a quaint little village with a proud history linked with early exploration and trains.

South of the highway you’ll find the tranquil National Park which holds numerous attractions, specially Red Hands Cave, Jelly Bean Pool and Euroka Clearing, where, at dusk you can almost always count on seeing kangaroos.

Hand prints, hand stencils and grinding grooves from an Aboriginal culture at least 20,000 years old can be found in and nearby Red Hands Cave and along Campfire Creek.


Red Hands Cave

Back near town, Wascoe Siding Miniature Railway - open on the first Sunday of each month - is a delight. In the grounds of the Ampol service station you will see the wonderfully restored former Stationmaster’s sandstone cottage.

To the north of the highway is lovely Glenbrook Lagoon and Elizabeth’s Lookout which provides a panoramic view of the plains.

The next stop is Blaxland where the three early roads of Cox, Lawson and Mitchell all meet. For many years, the Pilgrim Inn (c1825) stood at the junction of these three roads. The inn’s ruins can be seen close to the traffic lights on the G.W. Highway. You now pass through Warrimoo (Aboriginal for Eagle) and Valley Heights on your way to Springwood. Warrimoo is believed to be the explorers’ first camp site.
