Comments

There’s mixed comments on distance. It was 3.6 km return according to my Apple Watch. Just drive to the end of the road and you will see a parking area on your left and trail on the right of the road. Was a gorgeous little walk. Quite steep in the beginning but your are amongst the trees! Worth getting to the nice waterfall. It isn’t big, but still lovely.

It was pretty hot today so it was a bit of a tough walk. It would be nice when cooler. There isn't a lot of water in the falls at the moment.
