Perrys Lookdown
sign at the Blue Gum Forest

Perry's Lookdown is situated on the edge of the Grose Valley in the Blue Mountains, Australia.[1] It is believed to have been named by Frederick Eccleston Du Faur after either Samuel Augustus Perry or a local innkeeper.[2] Free campsites (five individual sites) are adjacent to the car park.[3] The Blue Gum Forest is often accessed by foot from here, 656 vertical metres below the lookdown. The road to Blackheath is unsealed.[4]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
