One of Tasmania’s 60 Great Short Walks, the hike to Meander Falls can be done as a circular walk, taking in a variety of terrain and a number of smaller (but equally impressive) falls by taking the Split Rock Track back.
30km south-west of Deloraine. Take C167 from Deloraine to Meander, then follow signs to Meander Forest Reserve. Last few kilometres of road is unsealed and rough, but OK for 2WD vehicles
The track follows the Meander River upstream. It ascends fairly steadily but not steeply at the start, with a steep section after about 3km before it levels out for the last kilometre to the Falls. Return the same way, or take the signposted "Split Rock Track" that descends and crosses the Meander River before traversing a large scree field. This alternate track returns via a number of picturesque waterfalls.
National Parks Pass required.
