Katoomba sits near the top of the range at roughly 1,000 metres, and the weather behaves accordingly. Fog and low cloud can settle over the Great Western Highway with almost no warning, and winter mornings routinely start below freezing. The town itself is built along a ridge, so nearly every street off Katoomba Street falls away sharply towards one escarpment or the other.
Altitude and cold are hard on batteries that were already marginal, and the long pull back up from the valley floor finds any weakness in an older cooling system. Add a wet, greasy road surface under trees that never see full sun, and the mid-winter mornings here generate a very different kind of callout to a flat suburban street.
The tourist roads are the awkward part. Cliff Drive is narrow, winding and lined with parked cars whenever the weather is good, and the approaches to Echo Point and Scenic World fill with coaches and hire cars through the middle of the day. Recovering a vehicle from those stretches is usually a question of finding somewhere to safely position the truck rather than of distance.
Our FAQs cover what we can tow, how payment works and the two jobs we do not take on.
