All About
Spring Creek Falls
Highlights
Hidden away in the secluded Mowbray Valley, Spring Creek Falls is a popular swimming spot amongst the locals. At the end of Spring Creek Road lies the beginning of the walk to the falls. With no specific path, simply follow the creek along to the falls – there’s plenty of small waterholes and waterfalls along the way. Exercise caution on the uneven and rocky ground on your way up. Once arrived, relax and enjoy a swim in the deep rock pools.
Be sure to bring plenty of water and some food up with you as the trek is approximately 1.5 to 2 hours each way.

- Always enjoy waterfalls from trails and marked viewing points. Do not climb over barriers as cliff edges and slippery surfaces may cause injury or death.
