Information

There are 3 options from this point:
1) Joffre Waterfall - after a very short walk over the creek, the trail descends to the gorge where you must descend difficult rock edges (rock climbing) to reach the gorge floor. A series of blue markers are nailed into the rock to guide the way however this route is only for very fit and agile people. Once you reach the gorge floor , turn to the right and the cavern opens up into an amphitheatre. During the dry season the waterfall may not be running and you can walk right up to it on the sand.
2)Start the same walk as above but instead of descending down into the gorge, continue walking along the rim.
3)From the main carpark and signboards take the trail to the right and simply walk out on a boardwalk to the lookout. Suitable for all fitness levels. Good views to the gorge and waterfall below.
