Little Aire Falls — Attraction in Beech Forest

A beautiful hike with less traffic than Triplet Falls (both start from the same point in the car park). It's moderately difficult, more so than Triplet Falls - I'm unfit and had to stop a few times to catch my breath, but anyone with good or better fitness would find it easy I think! Take the time to look up at some of the massive gumtrees along the way.

Be aware that Little Aire Falls is not 2.3km return like the sign at the car park says, it's closer to 6km return. The track has a couple of forks so take a mental note of which route to return on your way back, but all up it's an easy track to navigate. A few muddy spots.

The carpark has picnic tables, rainwater and long...

If you visiting Otway tree top, you don’t want to miss this beautiful hiking place. It’s one of the good tracks I have been too in recent times.

Forest is pretty dense and not ideal for rainy day. On your way to fall you’ll come across few little tiny water ways which look awesome. For nature and bird lovers you will hear serine sounds of trees and birds in the background, which truly is relaxing and away from city noise. Worth giving a try and watch this...

My son David and I saw this picturesque waterfall in April 2014. It was the first time we had seen it and the walk in was well worth the effort. It had rained overnight and the earthy smell of the vegetation filled the air. The waterfall was in full flow and the sound of the tumbling water resonated through the fern gulley. We allowed about an hour each way so that we could marvel at the tree ferns, the moss covered trees that towered high into the canopy and the beautiful native birds that flitted from side to side along the walking track. Many types of fungi thrived in the damp earth, some the size of a twenty cent coin and others the size of dinner plates. Take your camera. You will not be...
