Veer left: From the intersection, the walk follows the ‘Federal Pass’ sign towards ‘Scenic Railway’, keeping the main cliffs on the right. Not long after the intersection, the track passes ‘under the sisters’ rock formation (signposted
[8]). From here, the track turns and continues along a relatively stretch and, at several points, passes some notable rock formations and caves embedded in the cliffs. There are occasional good views that are not shrouded by the trees. The walk continues until coming to the base of Katoomba Falls, crossing these using a metal bridge know as ‘Cooks Crossing’. (Just across the bridge, there is a picnic table.)
Continue straight: From the intersection, this walk heads south-west away from Katoomba Falls along the bush track, soon passing the signposted ‘Turpentine Tree’. Shortly after this tree, the track comes to an intersection with another bush track and set of stairs (on the right, signposted as ‘Furber Steps’).
Continue straight: From the bottom of Furber Steps, this walk follows the ‘To base of scenic railway’ sign keeping the handrail on the left, and following the flat bush track. This track passes through a small gate over a metal bridge at the bottom of the Scenic Railway.
