If you're not confident 4WDing, don't take Kinglake-Glenburn Rd as the road is an unmarked 4WD track that is challenging for less experienced drivers and impassable for 2WD/AWD. The gravel road from Exton is poorly maintained and potholed but passable for any vehicle with sufficient clearance.
The walk itself isn't challenging and is fine for families including children and older people. However, the designated viewing platform is a significant distance from the falls and isn't worth stopping for unless you happen to be driving right past and looking to stretch your legs.
No bathrooms, no bins, no water, so remember to bring water, tissue paper and a rubbish bag to bring your waste...
Read moreBeautiful and simple 1.5km loop to the observation platform, I've done both versions of the loop and recommend starting on the left side and coming back on the right. For those who enjoy a bit more of a challenge there's a steep trail off to the right of the platform that leads to the base of the waterfall and for the extra challenge waterfall is definitly climbable, as long as you don't mind getting a bit dirty. Top of waterfalls is maybe 0.5 km from viewing platform, but is a nice challenging climb both ways. Whole loop and side trek would take the average climber just over and hour out and back. No climbing equipment needed...
Read moreI only have 3 stars because of the view from the platform is so far away from the falls. Is an easy walk of about 750m from the car park via a dirt track and the odd step.
The water fall split into two and continues to flow down a small stream. I'm certain in heavy rain it would flow quite quick.
What a really love about this place is how untouched it is and so dense with ferns and trees.
Even though I have it three stars it is still with a drive if you are near by.
There are no toilets or other facilities. This is pure nature experience.
Please take your rubbish home, enjoy and leave...
