Late spring and summer (November to February) are ideal for enjoying the natural pools. Weekdays in the morning have fewer people and soft light for photos.

Om
Snabba fakta: Vattnet faller över 30 meter genom en naturlig sandstenstrappa och skapar perfekta pooler för ett svalkande dopp på sommaren. Stigen till vattenfallen går genom en skog av jätteormbunkar och hundraåriga eukalyptusträd som utstrålar en karakteristisk doft.
Höjdpunkter: Vad få vet är att de naturliga poolerna ovanför vattenfallet fungerar som en mjuk rutschkana formad av erosion under tusentals år. Under varma dagar skapar dimman från vattenfallet mikroregnbågar som dansar bland ormbunkarna hela tiden.
Insidertips
- Use non-slip footwear, as the rocks get slippery from the waterfall's moisture.
- Bring a sarong and swimsuit: the natural pools at the top are the highlight of the outing.
- Avoid weekends in January, when the place is packed with local families.
- The best angle for photos is from the observation platform halfway along the trail, not at the endpoint.
