GOLD COAST HINTERLAND, SPRINGBROOK, QUEENSLAND

Gold Coast Hinterland, Springbrook, QueenslandOpen 24 hours, every dayGet Directions
Know before you go. Access to the top and the base of the waterfall itself is prohibited at all times — stay out of the restricted areas. The circuit is 5.3km and takes about two hours, and it is easier walked clockwise; adding the Warringa Pool track puts on another 2km and 40 minutes. Parts of the track close after heavy rain, though the western lookout usually stays open. Swimming in the park's creeks is not recommended, for the sake of the aquatic ecosystems.

A spectacular 100-metre waterfall in Springbrook National Park. The trail passes behind the falls through a rock overhang with views of the Gondwana rainforest.
