Blue Mountains River Run is an ecotourist development in the Megalong Valley. The site of 190 hectares is formed by a steep-sided ridge running north-south with the Cox's River skirting the west, south and east of the site. On completion, the project will have ten cabins and a restaurant and

environmental conference venue. The first cabin was completed in September 1999. The objective is to have an eco-tourist destination demonstrating best practice. To this end the architecture is designed to fit into the landform, and be energy efficient and to be environmentally sustainable.
