Linden Observation Site
(aka Beames' Observatory)
On your first road trip, WSAAG recommends travelling in daylight, as at night the turn off is sharp and can be easy to miss in the dark.
Location: 105 Glossop Road Linden, NSW, 2778
General Directions from Sydney
From Penrith, take the Great Western Highway, to the Blue Mountains, and travel for approximately 30 minutes. A road sign for Linden appears approx 5kms or so before the Linden turn off. A street sign for Tollgate Drive, on the left hand side of a sweeping bend indicates the turnoff for Linden.
Travel though the village of Linden via the Tollgate Drive and take the left hand turn into Glossop Road. Travel the length of Glossop Road as the Observation Site is the last property.
