For a truly amazing experience do it at night, the far North is so hot and muggy during the day so avoid the heat. The views may be less vast but truly spectacular in the dark and there are more interesting creatures.
Great little walk from car park. Nice to see a decent viewing platform with a bench top sit on. All sealed, wheel chair friendly, mostly flat. And an impressive site to visit. We spotted a black snake and a tree kangaroo at the car …
This place is great heaps of parking bbq area 2 areas with tables plenty of grass area for picnics and ball games, lots of wildlife toilets are a little walk from seating and track. Track is not wheelchair or pram friendly, the walk itself …
Nice formed path up to the crated with a lookout platform. The track to the falls is uneven and slippery. Last time we were here we seen a cassowary, but no luck this time. The carpark has a toilet and picnic area. The walk is only short to the viewing platform.
This is one of my most favourite rainforest locations to visit on the Atherton Tablelands, especially in summer. The track is clear and well maintained, and Dinner Falls has an excellent little swimming hole underneath. Only a short track, …
Pretty amazing place, worth the short walk in to the viewing platform, follow the signs along the creek and listen to the water is nice, there is plenty of bird and wildlife to see if your still, good parking, toilets and picnic areas at car park.
Lovely spot. Walk down and check out dinner falls as well as the crater. The path down to the falls isn’t suitable for anyone with mobility concerns and there is a bit of uphill leg work to get back but it is well worth a look but It’s an …
So beautiful! Great view of the crater plus an awesome swimming hole at the bottom of the falls. Keep an eye out for the tree kangaroos. Also, check for leeches before you leave (they're only small 🙂). …
Impressive ...need to be very careful on the walk to crater and the waterfalls but worth the long walk. Don't forget to stop and look up. Huge trees and stags.
A fairly easy walk from the car park to the crater, the crater track is fully sealed. Well worth a look, an amazing piece of natural history. Well worth checking out dinner falls while you are here. There is a good area for a picnic and a public toilet.
