Scenic World, Adventure park in Katoomba, Blue Mountains, Australia.
The complex contains the steepest passenger railway in the world, descending into a valley at a 52-degree angle through dense forest canopy.
The original railway track was constructed in 1878 to transport coal from mines, later transforming into a passenger service for tourism in 1945.
The park features exhibits explaining the Gundungurra and Darug peoples' connection to the land through storytelling and traditional knowledge.
The facility operates daily from 9 AM to 5 PM, offering combination tickets that include access to the railway, cableway, skyway, and forest walkway.
The Scenic Skyway glass floor transforms from opaque to transparent during the journey, suspended 270 meters above Jamison Valley.
