Birdwood Gully – A Blue Mountains bushwalk that will not disappoint

Birdwood Gully/ Madolin Glen track is a medium grade 2.6km bushwalk in Springwood that will take around 1 – 2 hours to complete. It is a sensational track for families to explore and soak up the natural beauty of the Blue Mountains and discover incredible sights along the way. From little bridges and waterfalls to massive sandstone overhangs, ferns carpeting the ground, huge grass trees, glow worm caves and running creeks – this track is paradise and will leave your most reluctant bushwalkers relishing in the sights in awe and wonder.

Find Glowworms on this Blue Mountains bushwalk!

Glowworms live here! There are various dark overhangs that house glow worms along Birdwood Gully track. Your children will enjoy the challenge of trying to spot them, but obviously, in the daytime, it is not easy. It’s possible to see them hanging in some parts, but not glowing.

Finding the track

You can access Birdwood Gully/Madolin Glen track from Lucinda Ave, Boland Ave or Bednall Road, Springwood.

It is always recommended that two adults bushwalk with children. At the end of the walk, little legs might be very tired so one adult might fetch the car while the others wait. Take care with traffic along Bednall Road as cars may speed down the winding road.
