Springwood has always been a place for travelers to stop for sustenance. Today this tradition has faded due to disconnect from its surrounding area.
The Blue Mountains continue to have a strong tradition in travel (through hiking and biking) and nourishment (through farms, roasteries, breweries, and more). It’s time to take back their heritage and become a hub and gateway for visitors on their way to the Blue Mountains.
By connecting with local bike and bush walking trails, we can begin to increase foot traffic through the town and create activities for both tourists and the local towns folk. This creates the opportunity to once again nourish visitors by providing a market hall that consolidates the local producers of food, produce, and arts/crafts.
This consolidation brings the Blue Mountains to a single point, allowing the whole region to be experienced and for Springwood to truly become a gateway to the area.
