Lost City Trail Head

The new Lost City Walking Track is now open in the Gardens of Stone State Conservation Area (SCA), providing visitors with another great option to get out and explore the Lithgow region. The 6km family-friendly walking track takes visitors on a memorable journey through pagoda rock formations and heritage sites, set against a backdrop of panoramic views. Covering clifftop tracks, intricate creek crossings and diverse landscapes, the Lost City Walking Track is a moderate Grade 3 walk with an optional Grade 4 loop via the Miners Pass Link Track. This historic route features hand-carved steps once used by miners to access a valley mine shaft, offering a unique glimpse into the area's mining heritage. THE WALK To see more of the area on foot, take the family-friendly Lost City walking track that starts from the lookout. This memorable 6km return walk takes about 2-4hrs and includes creek crossings, magnificent views, and heritage mining relics.
