Barrow Lookout is named after Saac Le Pipre Barrow, a government surveyor in the late 1870s who worked on mapping this area. This viewpoint is breathtaking, perched up on sandstone cliffs. There are railings for safety around this concrete platform that overlooks Govett Gorge, a side view of Govetts Leap Falls, and nearby peaks like Mount Hay. There is a rest bench here for a break, a perfect spot to take in the amazing views.
