Introduction[edit]

  • Bobs Falls
  • Approach[edit]

    In Kippara State Forest. Use Bobs Ridge Road from The Bluff Campground

  • Location and Approach
  • Descent[edit]

    3 abseils above main falls, 1 below main falls. Scrubby and log jams in places. Main falls are great, you can take the short route in to them. Main falls require bolting, first abseil is about 70 metres but you can do it with a 60 metre rope and re belay or scramble down to second abseil which is probably about 90 metres but again you can get off at 60 metres on true left.
