The NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) has closed a 2 km section of the historic Federal Pass track in Blue Mountains National Park following a significant rockfall.
Safety closures are in place on the track between Cooks Crossing (south-east of Furber Steps) and to the west of the bottom of the Giant Stairway, below the Three Sisters.
Damage from the recent rockfall includes fallen trees and boulders across the track.
Geotech experts will assess the site and provide advice to NPWS on hazard remediation.
The safety closures will remain in place until further notice.
Prince Henry Cliff Track, Grand Cliff Top Walk, Three Sisters Walk, Furber Steps and Giant Stairs are unaffected by closures.
Visitors are reminded to check NPWS Alerts
before travelling to any NSW national park for the latest information and to help plan trips in advance.
