Beautiful waterfall and creek, secluded swimming holes, picnic area and wildlife spotting. The path is paved and easily accessible, there is a slight slope to the walk, but it is well worth it as you come to a gorgeous waterfall at the end of the walk. It takes about 20 minutes to get to the end.

Locals secret - swimming holes, waterfalls, rainforest, birdwatching and short walks. The short trail takes you through the rainforest over rocky (and sometimes slippery)terrain. Approximately 30 minutes walk and youll be at a waterfall, or just stop at the waterholes along the way. This is also the start of some longer walks.
