The Bowtells Swing Bridge is one of the defining features of the Six Foot Track. The wire suspension bridge is stretched high above the Coxs River and provides excellent views over the water and surrounding landscape.
Most visitors to this bridge are hiking the Six Foot Trail between Katoomba and Jenolan Caves, though you can access it via a 12.6 kilometre day hike from the parking area at the intersection of Megalong Road and Aspinall Road.
