('Bell Birds', Henry Kendall, 1869) ... Lush, thriving riverine rainforest with sharply defined hill contours, deep, eucalypt-filled valleys, abundant ferns and mosses and tumbling and filling is the Toorongo River branching off to the Little Toorongo River.
Long-time favourite area for technical landscape photographers honing skills, offering a very similar but more compact scale of rainforest Errinundra National Park in far East Gippsland.

Β Β Β Read moreI absolutely love this spot on earth, so beautiful and peaceful. The loveliest camp-site at the base of the Falls with decent facilities. First come first serve so get there early for a spot! The Amphitheatre and Tooringo Falls loop walk takes about 45 mins at a steady pace for any mildly mobile person, although it is steep in parts.

I need to get back there with my ND filters, I only had my 4stop with me which was sufficient but I would like to return to push the long exposure further. Be aware, phone signal is non existent out there, so if you rely on Google maps, be prepared...
