What a stunning waterfall, when it is running with a reasonable amount of flow, which does not appear to happen too often. There is a walking track that gets you to this delightful spot, from either Westbourne Ave / Glenview Rd (Track not signposted, but look for the steps going down into the bush, or, follow the fire trail down, then when another comes in on the right, follow this until you see the walkers signs on either side of the fire trail and then go down to the left) or at the end of Dell Rd.

At this point, I have only accessed these falls from the Westbourne Ave entrance, for some of the walk, it is on good formed tracks, the further you descend, the rougher it gets with a couple of small creek crossings to negotiate, nothing too hard though, then the final descent down a gully, this part can be slippery when wet and is quite rough but not impossible. Then the track flattens out into a good walking track with a cliff on your right, you round a point and the falls are to your left and up on the right is a large overhang with picnic table. Very pleasant indeed.

These falls are quite stunning, with a single drop down to a nice cascade at the bottom, for some reasons, persons unknown have decided to paint an Aboriginal flag behind the falls.

There is a shallow sandy pool at the base and evidence that this was once dammed to create a swimming spot, but now silted up with sand. A very nice spot to visit and worth the short, strenuous walk out again.
