Finding the track
From Wentworth Falls railway station, turn right onto the Great Western Highway and then first left into Falls Road. Follow Falls Road for 1.3 kilometres and take the third street on your right (Fletcher Street). Follow Fletcher Street for a further 800 metres right to the very end to the car park next to the Conservation Hut caf�.
Walk directions
The track starts just to the right of the caf�, next to the old toilets, and is clearly signposted. After 15 minutes, the track leads down steel steps to Edinburgh Castle rock (an Aboriginal cultural site), and from there to Lillian's Glen, Asmodeus pool and the top of the Valley of the Waters. After a simple footbridge the track joins with the National Pass coming up from the valley and then climbs up via Empress Lookout to the Conservation Hut.
