Blackheath, Administrative division in Blue Mountains, Australia.

Blackheath stands at 1,065 meters elevation in New South Wales, making it one of the highest settlements in the Blue Mountains region.

European settlers established this mountain community in the mid-19th century, drawn by the natural resources and potential for agriculture in the area.

The Gundungurra and Darug Aboriginal peoples maintained strong connections to this land before European settlement, leaving their mark on the region.

The town connects to Sydney through regular train services and offers various accommodation options from hotels to local bed and breakfast establishments.

The Blackheath Rhododendron Festival occurs annually, celebrating the seasonal changes with displays of native and introduced flora throughout the town.
