EnglishWhat is Blue Mountains Australia (bluemts.com.au)?
Updated
Blue Mountains Australia (bluemts.com.au) is a regional visitor information and community portal for the Blue Mountains area of New South Wales. It is aimed at two broad audiences: travellers planning a trip to the region, and locals or businesses looking for community and commercial information. The site describes itself as covering "Visitor Information, Accommodation, Things to do, Events, News, Weather and 7 Day Forecast." It is a regional network site rather than an official government tourism authority, so treat it as a starting point for orientation rather than a booking or ticketing service.
What the site covers
The homepage is organised around a few main sections, each serving a different purpose:
| Section | What it is for |
|---|---|
| Visitor Information | Overview of the region and what to see and do |
| Business in the Mountains | Information on the local business community and economy |
| Community | Village life, clubs, associations, schools, churches, sport |
| Have You Visited | A recurring feature highlighting places or experiences |
| Stralia Web's Regional Network | Indicates the site is part of a wider regional web network |
The visitor content highlights the region's setting above Sydney, the Three Sisters at Echo Point, bushwalking, galleries, dining, shopping, day spas, golf, and other attractions. It frames the Blue Mountains as suitable for both romantic getaways and family escapes.
Who it is for
- Visitors planning a trip — use it to get a general sense of the region, its attractions, and what a visit might include.
- Locals and community members — the Community section points to festivals, events, clubs, associations, schools, churches, and sporting activities.
- Businesses and professionals — the Business section describes a diverse local business community, with some businesses distributing products and services across Sydney, nationally, and internationally.
What to keep in mind
The site presents itself as a visitor and community information hub, not an official government source. Its own framing notes the region sits within a World Heritage area and offers a "unique, relaxing environment." That is promotional language, so verify time-sensitive details — opening hours, event dates, weather warnings, and accommodation availability — against primary sources before you rely on them.
The site mentions "subscribe" and "upgrade" as pricing-related signals, but no specific prices, plans, or payment methods are stated in the available material. If you need to know what a subscription or upgrade includes, check the site directly rather than assuming any part of it is free or paid.
How to use it
- Start with the Visitor Information section to orient yourself on the region and its main attractions.
- Check the Events and Weather sections for current and forecast conditions before travelling.
- Use the Community and Business sections if you are local, relocating, or researching the area's services.
- Cross-check anything critical — bookings, closures, safety advice — with official sources such as the relevant tourism authority or national park service.
