Blast Furnace Park Lithgow New South Wales

Blast Furnace Park Lithgow

Blast Furnace Park Lithgow in NSW comprises the ruins of the old blast furnace that used to operate on the site. What would otherwise have been a very bland and boring attraction has been developed into a great little place to walk around and learn about Lithgow’s industrial past.

Access around and through the buildings is by raised walkways. These are accompanied by information boards which give details about usage, design and development. There are gravel pathways further from the ruins and a lookout over the area from the top of a small hill.

One of the areas nearby has warning signs for slippery surfaces and fall hazards, so don’t climb it. Anything you want to see there can be viewed from the lookout or raised walkways.

Parking at The Furnace is easy and there is plants of space. Be careful using your navigation system. Ours tried to take us through an industrial area and along some railway tracks. The actual entrance is the obvious one with the sign.  If you do follow your navigation system then you will end up on the wrong side of a big fence.  Not that we would know this.
