Blue Mountains YHA Hostel Photos

The Blue Mountains are what's between Australia's East Coast and the rest of the continent -- and that's a lot of 'tween. Just before you get cloud-bound in the Blues and an hour's train ride from Sydney is the village of Katoomba, a very sweet little city serving as a perfect launching pad for adventures in this lovely landscape. Make time for a trip to Katoomba, and stay at the YHA Blue Mountains hostel -- a historic building downtown houses one of the homiest hostels around Australia. Come for the weekend, and you may stay for a very long time.
