Three Sisters rock formation, Blue Mountains, New South Wales

SOURCE: Wikipedia, under Creative Commons license.

The Three Sisters are one of the most famous sights of the Blue Mountains, towering above the Jamison Valley, located near the town of Katoomba.

Their names are Meehni (922 m), Wimlah (918 m), and Gunnedoo (906 m).

The cliffs that surround the Jamison Valley consist of soft sandstone, which is easily eroded over time by wind, rain and rivers. They, including the Three Sisters, will eventually be eroded away completely.
