A 20-kilometre return trip is the punishment for this beauty in Budderoo National Park. An emerald green, Olympic-sized swimming hole awaits you at the base of these falls, with swimming holes and panoramic views across the countryside from the top. The start of the trail is obscure enough, and keeping on it is near impossible – you need a great deal of bush knowledge to find your way through the loose rock and logs. Get in contact with Adventureco to see if someone can show you the way.
