This enchanting walk begins in wet eucalypt forest beneath towering flooded gums. Notice a drop in temperature as the wet eucalypt forest merges into lush rainforest. Beautiful crows nest and staghorn ferns can be seen in the canopy above. The rock pool and surrounding basalt rock face provide important glow-worm and platypus habitat.

What a wonderful bush walk. The track down to the falls is an easy walk for the whole family. It is well kept and so beautiful. The walk around the whole area is also east and well worth it. We went with a six year old who did the walk easily.

A really short & easy track, but still absolutely beautiful.

Nice walk not hard. Lots of beautiful large trees, vines, bush turkeys, birds, lizards. No swimming allowed and you are not allowed to go off the path or touch the waterfall, though many do.

Beautiful walk a week after some rain. The creek and falls were in full flow. Recommend doing the Lower Creek circuit on your way and finishing up at the falls.

Nice easy walk along cedar creek. Plenty of bird life. Loads of noisy smelly flying foxes.
