Apsley Falls is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in NSW. The two tier waterfall cascades into a dramatic gorge and can be viewed from a number of different lookouts across two walking trails. We’re sharing the best lookouts you don’t want to miss, as well as the ones you can skip.

Steep Hill first became used by the residents of Lincoln when the city was called Lindum Colonia and the Roman inhabitants decided to expand the settlement down the hill. Excavations has shown that the hill used to be lined by steps during that time. Today, Steep Hill is famous for its independent businesses - vintage boutiques, quaint tea rooms, chocolate & fudge parlours, and more. The steep, cobbled street, with a 16.12º gradient, was voted Britain's Great Street in 2012 by the Academy of Urbanism and named the fourth steepest street in England by the Ordnance Survey. There are also many historic sites still remaining on the hill and in use today: The Mayor's Chair is said to have been placed at the top of the steepest part of the hill by the Mayor of Lincoln in the early 18th century to give a place of rest to weary travellers. It has since been replaced but the essence of a place of rest remains. Harding House, an art gallery, stands just past the Mayor's Chair and dates back to the 15th century. The charming, half-timbered Harlequin stands on the corner past Harding House, first opened as an inn in the 18th century and now a book store. Towards the top of the hill is Norman House, dating back to the 12th century and still featuring its iconic double-arched windows. Remains of the Upper South Gate to Roman Lindum Colonia can still be seen on Steep Hill in the Number 44 shop and in a wall on the opposite side of the road. Steep Hill leads on from The Strait, another area full of fascinating history, and at the top of the hill you will find the stunning Lincoln Cathedral and Lincoln Castle. Steep Hill isn't suitable for those with accessibility requirements but the walk & ride can help you get to the top with ease.

We’ve used a large range of techniques to stablise our steep slope, you can read about some of them here, here and here. Yet another way we’ve used recycled materials to keep our slope from sliding down the hill is using timber pallets. We salvage these for free from the side of the road, building sites and warehouses. They’re treated with heat, so are chemical free – this means they’ll break down sooner rather than later, but before they do, you can use them in *countless* ways. If you’re searching for some yourself, look out for the “HT” stamp on…
Settling down on the side of a mountain is no easy task. The lot this home is quite steep, and most stock plans are designed for flat sites. The owners consulted with the post-and-beam artisans at Timberpeg and ultimately choose the “Leconte 5607” plan, which, serendipitously, met about 80 percent of their needs. For the remainder of their wish list, they worked with Ken Wertheim, an architect and independent rep for Timberpeg, who molded the design to fit the location they loved.
How do you calculate the steepness or angle of a ski slope? Slope steepness is calculated using a clinometer, which indicates the slope angle in degrees. The steepest in-bounds runs at ski resorts typically range from 35-50 degrees. But slope angles can be misleading.
