Know before you go. Getting here means unsealed roads from either the inland or the coast, 4WD only and only in dry conditions — do not attempt them wet. From the camping area it is 1.4km on to the signposted turn-off and another 5.2km to the lookout parking. The falls drop 90m to a pool and then cascade a further 230m into Blencoe Gorge. Camping must be booked in advance, and there is no mobile reception out here.
A 90-metre drop into a plunge pool, then a further 230 metres cascading through Blencoe Gorge — in Girringun National Park between Cardwell and Mount Garnet. Wet Tropics World Heritage. The lookout is 5km from the Blencoe Falls camping area along the Kirrama-Cashmere Road. Open eucalypt forest along the escarpments, hoop pines and vine-thicket rainforest in the gullies. The gateway to the 110km Wet Tropics Great Walk. 4WD only, dry-season only, mobile coverage near none.
