Take Lawrence Street, west off SH6, on southern side of town centre. Track starts at the far end. |
Description |
A pair of loop tracks giving access to two waterfalls. The short loop to the lower waterfall is easy going and takes about 20 minutes; the track to the upper waterfall is steeper and rougher but well worth the climb. If you're adventurous, you can go on further and do two more loops - one to the lookout and the next onto the escarpment - which together give a really rewarding 3-4 hour tramp as well as good views over the sound. |
