- Scenic World is located in Katoomba in the Blue Mountains, New South Wales, Australia, about 100 kilometres west of Sydney. Scenic World is home to four attractions, the Scenic Railway, the Scenic Skyway, the Scenic Cableway and Scenic Walkway a 2.4 km elevated boardwalk through ancient rainforest.
The Scenic Railway is an incline railway now used for tourism. The steepest section of track is on an incline of 52 degrees (128% gradient) contained within a total distance of 310 metres (1,020 ft). It was originally constructed for a coal and oil shale mining operation in the Jamison Valley in the 1880s, in order to haul the coal and shale from the valley floor up to the escarpment above. From 1928 to 1945, it carried coal during the week and passengers at weekends. The coal mine was closed in 1945 after which it remained as a tourist attraction. The Scenic Railway makes many claims to be the steepest passenger railway, the steepest funicular and the steepest incline in the world. However the railway uses a winch system and no counterbalancing carriage, therefore it is an inclined lift rather than a funicular.
Built in 1958, the Scenic Skyway is another cable-driven conveyance at Scenic World. It travels across the gorge above the Katoomba Falls, 270 metres (886 feet) above the valley floor. The original Scenic Skyway was withdrawn on 4 April 2004 after 587,401 crossings and now sits in the picnic area at Scenic World. It was replaced by a new cabin in December of the same year. The new Skyway features a 72-person cabin with sections of liquid crystal glass that turns a raised section of the floor transparent as the ride progresses. In November 2005, a second station on the opposite cliff-face opened, allowing Skyway passengers to disembark and follow bush walking trails to the nearby Echo Point. In November 2017, the latest Scenic Skyway cabin was launched. This Skyway cabin is 30% bigger than its predecessor, offering visitors a more spacious ride with easier boarding, as well as free Wi-Fi.
In 2000, Scenic World installed the Sceniscender, now called Scenic Cableway, 84-passenger cable car from Doppelmayr that passes over a 25-metre-high (82 ft) tower on the edge of the cliff, and then 510 metres (1,673 feet) to the Bottom Station in the Jamison Valley 200 m (656 ft) below. The Cableway had a replacement of its cabin in 2018.

Hi! Love the video! May I ask when is the best time to visit Scenic World to avoid the crowd and tour buses? I will be visiting during the weekends, but I heard there will be tour buses.
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
🙏🇳🇵
🙏😊
😊👍👍
Great video.
I remember going on the scenic railway as a kid back in the 80's, and it was a very basic carriage with wire mesh over the top, not like the modern glassed in version we have now.
Man, I wish the weather was this good when I visited Katoomba back in May.
Was that your voice we could hear at the end of the video, on the board walk?
Thanks.
Jim.
The canopy being a wire mesh is what I remember too and the last time i went would have been some time in the 2000s. So the train must have had a refresh over the last 15 years or so. The whole complex looks more modern now.
@@timtam53191 Yes, much more modern now. 👍
I remember the previous Scenic Railway before they replaced it with this one.
Yes, that was my voice 😊.
Thanks for watching Jim 🙏😊
Wow!, this was a very interesting video, definitely different from your regular city walking tour vids! Kinda half surprised that this video is three months old, I thought it was from this month until I saw the date, Still loved it though! Just two questions: 1. How many times did you go up and down the cableway? And 2. Was that furnace legit
eal? Or just a light? Keep up the awesome work!👏🏻👍🏻👌🏻🙂
I bought the Unlimited Discovery Pass for unlimited rides, but I only went down the Cableway twice & went up once because I wanted to enjoy all the other things in there.
The furnace was just a light.
Thanks for watching. Have a great day 🙏😊
@@MoreLocations aha, I see, gotcha, well, I’m glad you enjoyed yourself and had a good time! Same to you!🙂
Any reason the cable car went half way
