Near Sydney in the towns below the Blue Mountains, there are many eucalyptus trees that often emit a subtle blue haze. The most famous attraction is the Three Sisters rock formation. There's a walking trail next to the Three Sisters viewing platform that leads into the middle of the forest, which is really quite lovely.
