Wentworth Falls Lookout	Alt = 853 m
Wentworth Falls Lookout, in the Blue Mountains National Park, is beside Sir H Burrell Drive. The lookout is fenced and has a large information sign about the area. There are some bench seats and great vistas. There is a view to Wentworth Falls (in the valley to the left), but the most captivating view is across the Jamison Valley to Mount Solitary. There are also great views of the Kings Tableland (left), Sublime Point (right) and Narrow Neck (far right) escarpments. This is a great place to enjoy the scope of this World Heritage listed area.

The track soon starts to zigzag and passes a lookout, with distant views filtered through the surrounding trees (avoid the track to the left near the lookout). As the track continues down, it passes through temperate rainforest and then bends left to travel parallel with Den Fenella Creek. The track soon leads to an intersection just before a bridge, with a sign pointing back up to 'Wentworth Falls Picnic Area'.

On the other side of the creek, the walk heads down the steps to come to a bridge below the bigger Den Fenella Fall. From the Den Fenella Fall, this walk crosses the metal bridge and continues along the cliff edge along the fence-lined track. After heading down some steps, the track ends at a fenced point with great views across the valley.

The Den Fenella Lookout is a small fenced lookout on a cliff ledge, near where Den Fenella Creek falls into the Jamison Valley. The lookout is at the end of the track and has a tall cliff above and below. There is a small tree on the ledge adding to the sense of depth. From here, there are great views to Mount Solitary (middle), Kings Tableland (left), Narrow Neck Plateau (far right) and Sublime Point (right). This is a great spot, well worth a visit.

The track heads up a small set of steps and then tends left (revealing valley views on the right). Soon after passing a rock wall (on the left), the track goes through a muddy section and continues, passing some more large boulders. Soon the track passes another great rock wall (on the left) with fantastic valley views and an old wire fence. The walk then crosses a small metal bridge and comes to an overhang with a constructed stone wall. From this overhang, the walk continues around the valley to soon come to a fenced (unnamed) lookout with great views. From the lookout, this walk heads back into the bush, across a small metal bridge and then soon comes to a three-way intersection with 'Princes Rock' track on the left (and a sign pointing back to the 'Valley of the Waters'). Turn sharp left: From the intersection, this walk follows the 'Princes Rock' sign up the steps, away from the Undercliff Walk. This track climbs up, passing by a great fenced view over to Mt Solitary and the valley to the right. Soon, the walk comes to an intersection, with a sign pointing back to the 'Undercliff Track 100m'. Turn right: From the intersection, this walk heads downhill following the 'Princes Rock Lookout 200m' sign along the wide track.

Continue straight: From the intersection, this walk heads up the steps away from 'Princes Rock Lookout'. The track soon heads across a large rock platform with steps carved in it and then, following the track back into the bush, the walk passes an old drinking trough (not suitable for drinking). After heading up more log steps, the track comes to a three-way intersection, with a small sign pointing back to 'Princes Rock Lookout'. Turn right: From the intersection, this walk follows the 'Wentworth Falls Lookout' arrow up the steps as the track bends right.
