Information

Access to the Eliot Falls camping and day use area is via the Overland Telegraph Track (OTT) - and involves crossing Scrubby Ck.
Eliot Falls is a great place to visit but is also hazardous. Eliot falls is upstream from Twin Falls and has a taller drop than the others. Water cascades over parallel ledges of rock with the Eliot Creek running below. Water levels can rise rapidly and care must be taken in and near the water because of slippery rocks and submerged objects. The day use area offers picnic tables, an interpretation shelter and toilets. Heed all warning signs. Serious injuries and deaths have occurred here. Several formed walking tracks depart from Eliot Falls camping area, allowing you to explore the area around Eliot and Canal creeks.
