Horseshoe Falls walking track — Attraction in Sydney

Burgess Falls, Horseshoe Falls, Glow-Worm Nook Falls Burgess and Horseshoe falls are short walk on from Oakland falls. Follow the signs taking you down some steep rocks to the falls, the track loops around after Burgess Falls so you can keep on following it to get back. Glow-Worm Nook Falls is another waterfall that flows over an overhang and small cave. This one is a bit of a tight squeeze and a struggle to shoot from behind. You can access this one by walking in behind Oakland Falls, out the other side and up the slope for 50 odd meters. Oakland Falls is the main draw card in Hazelbrook and is unique in that you can walk behind and around the fall in its entirety. The falls flow down an overhang with a shallow cave offering protection from rain and a path to the other side. The cave and overhang gives you a great opportunity to shoot pointing outwards or through the waterfall. The large rocks at its base add further interest especially with the addition of a polarizing filter which will bring out the rich red colour. There’s plenty of foreground interest about and even a few rocks you can precariously perch yourself on to shoot facing the waterfall. Or if you are feeling brave you can jump in the water, just be careful the current can move pretty quick after lots of rain. Access to Oakland falls is via a walk starting at the end of Alexander Ave, Hazelbrook. You can park on the grass at the very end of the street. Here’s a link to the location on Google Maps. I haven’t found a good map of the area detailing where the waterfalls are however it’s pretty obvious when you get down there. The only waterfall that wasn’t obvious to me was Oakland Falls, you need to go left when you come to the bottom of the hill and hit the stream. Taking a right will lead you to the other waterfalls (Burgess Falls, Horseshoe Falls). The entire loop track will only take an hour or so to get round without stopping for photos. I ended up spending a good few hours down there taking my time. Access via Winbourne Road is also...

Lovely hike through Australian nature. 3 main waterfalls and another mini one in the beginning. If you walk to the last waterfall it's about 2 hours return. Well worn and labelled paths so shouldn't get too lost.

From horseshoe falls you can take a bottom route towards the other 2 waterfalls one along the water and one on an upper route. At Burgess falls you can see down from the top of the waterfall and there seems to be another path to a different road I've never taken.

Not too hard of a walk but it can get wet and muddy which makes it slippery. Well shaded and totally worth it. It isn't a very crowded walk and I've seen families and dogs. All...

Do not take the BMX track when you park.

When you park in the kind of designated parking area on Oaklands road. Look down the road you most likely drove from and you will see and metal fence on the left hand side. Walk to that to see the trail head start.

Good walk. My kids loved the first little Waterfall the most and it's official name (by them) is called "soup factory". Some of its a bit overgrown. But not a hard walk at all.

We were on the trail for about 2and a half hours but I reckon the walk to the horseshoe falls took us 30 minutes. We spent a lot of time playing around at the 2 waterfalls.

Good walk...
