Introduction

An easy to access and close set of ramped falls with a great view.

Approach

Descent

The lower falls (~50m) can be climbed when dry, however most of this fall is just ramp, but would require rope after heavy rain. It would make for a killer slide if there was enough water in the pool at the bottom, but it doesn’t look like it would fill high enough. The middle fall requires an abseil (~20m). There is also an infinity pool at the top of the middle fall (see middle photo). The top fall is just a ramp and would only be abseiled in high flow.
