Walk in Darwin’s Footsteps
The Charles Darwin Walk gives you the chance to follow in the footsteps of the famous naturalist. The enchanting adventure takes you through the gurgling waters of Jamison Creek and into the mist of Eucalyptus that gives the mountains its name. Push past hanging swamps and follow the trail of the waterfalls as honeyeaters perch in the branches above.

Splash in the Lakes
The actual waterfall that gives the small town its fame and fortune is a beautiful sight to behold, especially when you linger by the lake for a picnic lunch. The lake is also a safe spot for taking a dip in the cooling waters rather than risking the rush of the falls.
