The unique Heritage listed garden estate of Breenhold Gardens at Mount Wilson, in the Blue Mountains, is one of the most extensive privately owned garden properties in Australia. Breenhold comprises over 45 hectares of luxuriant gardens, parkland and native bushland.
Over the past 40 years several thousand exotic and indigenous trees and flowering shrubs have been planted. Northern hemisphere elms, pines, cedars, cypresses & dogwood, rhododendons and azalea terraces blend with native tree ferns and towering eucalypts. Six individual stone walled gardens, several with pools, are focus points of Breenhold.
A series of pine forest windbreaks extending over a kilometre adjacent to the National Park provide protection for the gardens. This outer area features a number of terraced bush trails and forest walks which contrast to the more formal gardens on the plateau above, and provide the visitor a number of easy & pleasant bush walks.
There are also stunning views over the adjoining Blue Mountains National Park from several of Breenhold's lookouts.
