Feel the thrill as you master one of the many obstacles at Treetops Adventure or visit Sydney’s biggest waterpark, Raging Waters. In Penrith, go skydiving without having to get in a plane at iFly Downunder or zoom up through the air with a water jet-powered backpack from Jetpack Adventures. Need more than a day to explore?

Known as Sydney’s backyard wilderness, the World Heritage Blue Mountains National Park is a 30-minute drive from Sydney Motorsport Park and home to the famous sandstone formation, The Three Sisters. Breathe in the fresh, eucalyptus-scented air, stand at bush lookouts and peer out across the forested valleys with their famous blue haze. In storybook mountain villages such as Leura, Katoomba and Blackheath, browse antique stores, buy handcrafted chocolates and enjoy mulled wine beside a heritage-hotel fireplace.

Whether it’s admiring the harbour al fresco or cosying up in an underground speakeasy, Sydney’s drinking scene has raised the bar. Bartenders take pride in their pours, cocktail ingredients lean toward small-batch and artisanal, and the final touch often involves a little smoke and mirrors. There’s a cocktail for everyone in Sydney; here’s where to find some of the best. Discover more of Sydney’s bar and nightlife here!
