Wolgan Valley location

Just 190 kilometres, or a three hour drive from Sydney in New South Wales, Wolgan Valley Resort & Spa is remarkably accessible, yet feels a world away. The quaint antique and curio shops of the surrounding Blue Mountain townships are all close-at-hand, as are attractions such as the Zig-zag Railway, cable car, Three Sisters and Jenolan Caves.

The Wolgan Valley is approximately 26 kilometres long, and varies in width from six or seven kilometres at its widest points before it narrows to a bottleneck of just one kilometre where the Wolgan River cuts a deep gorge through the sandstone.

Tall, almost vertical cliffs, contrast with the gentle curve of the Valley floor and a private road branches off the Wolgan Road to follow the river through to the property.

Wolgan Valley Resort & Spa is located at the southern end of the Valley, at the foot of Mount Wolgan and Donkey Mountain (major landmarks at 877 and 995 metres above sea level respectively).

To ensure maximum privacy and seclusion, the resort is for exclusive use of our resident guests only. Outside or day visitors are not permitted on the premises.

Transfer details

Climate in the Blue Mountains region varies with altitude and season. In the lower elevations, the summer months (from November to February) tend to be warm, with temperatures reaching into the early 30s (degrees Celsius). Usually, the temperature remains comfortable in the 20s during the day, getting down to the early teens at night.

The Wolgan Valley's towering escarpments offer protection from the wind, while the resort still benefits from the warmth of the sun. Summer months generally bring the heaviest levels of rainfall, at around 80 to 100 millimetres per month.

The coldest period is usually between April and September, when average daytime temperatures range between 10 and 15 degrees Celsius. At night, these temperatures can drop to as low as -3 degrees Celsius. Rainfall in the Blue Mountains is much lower during the winter months, and it may snow two or three times a year.
