There's new signage as well. Hopefully the middle leg down to the Great Western Hwy (M4) will get a similar treatment so that you don't have to go down steps or bushwalking

It is justifiably popular with locals (great for short walks and cycling for littlies), and probably under appreciated by the thousands of tourists who travel past it unawares to the more famous parts of the Blue Mountains. Well worth a visit.

It’s an easy walk up to the viaduct and then stairs up to the rail zig zag section. I found it really interesting, because it gave great views over the west Sydney region, good insight into the geology of the edge of the Blue Mountains, and great bush. I really recommend this trail, though the zig zag section is more for walking than riding, because of the difficulty in getting to it from the carparks.
