Ellenborough Falls

Know before you go. At about 200m this is the tallest single-drop waterfall in New South Wales, an hour out of Taree on the Bulga Plateau. There is a viewing platform right by the car park, and a ten-minute walk down the timber walkway to The Knoll, which faces the falls for a top-to-bottom view. Going to the base means 641 timber steps down and the same back up — that climb out is the hard part, so judge it before you start. There is a kiosk at the car park for water and snacks.
