McLaren Falls on the Wairoa River. There are a number of small rivers just upstream which all funnell into the Wairoa River. They are just to the east of Hwy 29 coming south west out of Tauranga in NZ
 
27-Aug-24
Little Falls about 1.5 km east of Paradise Falls. A difficult walk in to these falls but worth the effort. On the road in that is signposted "Paeradise Falls" . There is a short dirt track and parking area for these falls BUT no sign so unless you are aware of their existence it is easy to miss them.
 
27-Aug-24
Paradise Falls 17 Km south of Whitfield Vic. A pretty location where you can comfortably walk behind the falls. Falls were running but not as much as we have heard that they can. A comfortable approx 200 mtr walk into the falls.
 
11-Aug-24
Upper Barry Falls SE of Eldorado Victoria. These are about 110mtrs upstream of Barry falls. Once again only a dribble coming over.

Barry Falls SE of Eldorado (Victoria) Not much going over today. The rock wall was wet but that was about all
 
18-Jun-24
Waterfall on Thowgla Creek, Thowgla Vic. Access is mainly from Corryong via bitumen Rd and then gravel bush roads, a distance of about 50 km south of Corryong. Access is also possible via bush tracks heading in a mostly easterly direction off the Corryong Benambra Rd. The falls have only been accessible since the bushfires of about three -four years ago. The thick bush and undergrowth was burnt out which allowed Parks Vic and other Govt Depts and Volunteers to establish picnic facilities, toilets and a walking track up to a falls viewing platform

Florence Falls, Litchfield National Park, Northern Territory

Spectacular falls in Litchfield National Park

Florence Falls has a large plunge pool for swimming. It's possible to swim right up to the falls.

You can enter the water from the rocky edge or down the steps that lead into the deeper water.

You can also swim in Florence Creek at the top of the falls.

Found recently driving along South Riana Rd. Water falling down into the Blythe River possibly from the overflow of the nearby South Riana Dam.

This is Tahuti Falls - I was out there today doing cache maintenance - and swimming. Its hidden away of the side of a country road, and very few people know about it. There were one other family there while I was visiting, a nice surprise on such a hot day. There's no picnic facilities or shops too close by, so you need to bring everything with you that you'll need. Water was a lovely temperature today.

This is Russell Falls, located in the Mt Field National Park, 73km northwest of Hobart. A selfie taken 25/11/2023 of me and muggle partner.

Larapinta Falls
Lamington National Park, QLD

Some great images in the gallery Smile

There’s just something about waterfalls that makes them great. The energy, the sound, the feeling of the mist, some say it’s all about the negative ion thing. The ‘why’ doesn’t matter to me, I just like them.

Some of my favourites that come to mind: Rainbow Falls (Springbrook NP Qld ) where you regularly see twin rainbows. Seljalandsfoss (Iceland) where you can get behind the waterfall for a unique awesome experience. Wallaman Falls (Girringun NP Qld), the highest, permanent, single-drop waterfall in Australia and a spectacular sight. Those are great waterfalls but my favourite image of one is of Larapinta Falls. I took my sister and brother-in-law on a hike to see it. It’s not an easy trek out there but worth it if you can manage it. Creek walking, slippery rocks, gympie-gympie and of course leeches will present challenges but when you arrive the reward is grand. 5 hours return. In the image you will see my brother-in-law at the bottom of the falls which gives you some contrast and an idea just how big and impressive these falls are. Thanks for the cache Smile

Kalang Falls, Kanangra Boyd, NSW
Coords are for the carpark at the end of Kanangra Walls Road.
A1 hour round trip along a path that has 430 steps each way will take you to these falls. The walk is fantastic with certain sections having a steep drop off 1-2m off both sides of the path.
You can swim at the base of the Falls or walk around to the top of the next level of Falls, though when we went in January the water was still freezing cold.

S41 13.786 E147 12.587 LILYDALE FALLS

Co-ordinates are for the car parking area.

Lilydale Falls comprises of two waterfalls a short walking distance from each other, in the Lilydale Falls Reserve. Approximately 2km's outside of the township of Lilydale, and an easy 25 minute drive from the city of Launceston, Lilydale Falls is easily accessible by people of all ages and fitness levels.

The first waterfall is a 6 - 10 minute walk from the car park, and via a well maintained path, followed by a staircase that takes you directly to the base of the waterfall. The Second waterfall is another 3 minutes walk away, and the view of the waterfall is seen from a platform.

These falls are popular with tourists as the reserve is also a free camping area. Very Happy

We have multiple photos of waterfalls but decided to hang off logging this one as we had planned on walking today to Secluded Falls in North West Tassie.
A very difficult walk which took us 4 hours to get the two caches there.
By leaving this cache it gave us a third find for our efforts.
The falls were flowing freely today with recent rain and were quite an impressive drop.
They can be found at S41 18.770 E146 10.754.
The caches there were placed 7 years ago and to date we are only the 7th finders.
The walk to the falls is quite challenging in places but takes you through some incredible scenery, with magnificent manfern groves and the most picturesque mossy creek beds.
Most cachers have done this walk in about 2 and a half hours but we spent a lot longer as our muggle daughter had her super doper camera and tripod and a lot of time was spent photographing the area.
Thanks.
 
These are the Bowen Falls which fall from the top of Milford sound in New Zealand

S18° 13.216' E139° 52.788' - Leichhardt Falls - National Highway 1, East of Burketown, QLD

There are NO facilities.

We pulled up late in the afternoon and found a plot of sand to make our home for the night. There were already a few others parked a bit closer to the road and a couple parked further away. Heard some weird grunting noises, not sure if wild pigs, kangaroos or what it was

In June 2019 we headed from home in SW of WA up to Broome to start the Savannah Way (Highway 1) through NT and onto QLD where we went as far north as Newell Beach. then made our way down the coast with a two week stop in Mackay as Mr dimor was in hospital, then onto the Gold Coast for a week to see our daughter and grandson. Before heading to Toowoomba, Roma, Blackall, Longreach and Winton then started the Outback way that took us along the Plenty Highway to Alice Springs, to Uluru and onto the Great Central Road and home to WA. In total 15,000km in eight weeks

This is a photo of my son dalerious taken at the Spring Creek Cascade along the Beechworth Gorge Road.
After the recent rains we’ve just had there was plenty of water coming across the falls.
The Gorge Road is such a beautiful area to drive around and there are many great caches along this road, every one of them worth stopping for either for the history or the view.
The coordinates I have given are for the nearest cache to the falls

Montezuma Falls

An easy walk, through rainforest, along the route of the historic North East Dundas Tramway. At 104m, Montezuma Falls are one of the highest waterfalls in Tasmania and the track takes you right to the base of the falls.

Walking from Williamsford, the track is almost entirely through pleasant and open park-like rainforest. This includes leatherwood, myrtle, sassafras, giant tree ferns and eye-catching fungi.

You’re sure to get close to several different birds along the way, notably White’s thrush, which is a medium-sized and speckled brown and white ground dwelling bird. It forages quietly on the rainforest floor and, when disturbed, flies only a short distance before settling again, enabling you to get a second look.

An 1890 mineral survey showed the falls marked as Osbourne Falls. Montezuma was the name of the last Aztec emperor of Mexico (1466-1520). In Tasmania, his name appears to have originally been applied to a mining company — the Montezuma Silver Mining Company, which was formed in 1891 and held leases on the northern slopes of Mt. Dundas.

The creek immediately below the falls was once spanned by a wooden trestle bridge that was 160 ft. long and 50 ft. high and took five months to build. Today derelict pieces of timber, moss-covered concrete piers and rusty bolts are the only remains of this bridge.

The North East Dundas Tramway that ran from Zeehan to Deep Lead (now Williamsford) was constructed to facilitate access to mining sites in the Mt. Dundas and Mt. Read areas.

Surveying of the line commenced in 1895, and the ceremony to mark the ‘turning of the first sod’ was performed on 17 January 1896 before a crowd of 500 people. By January 1897 the first five miles of the line were in use and the official opening of the line through to Williamford was held in June 1898.

The gauge was 2 ft., which was a relatively narrow gauge and explains why the line was known as a tramway rather than a railway. The narrowness of the gauge was chosen to suit the winding hillsides and also to assist in lowering the cost of construction.

The line continued to operate infrequently until 1925 and was officially closed on 4 July 1932 and the rails were removed in the early 1940s.

I went with my Photoclub to Leura Cascades in the Blue Mountains last weekend. My camera is a simple one but I was happy with this photo I took at one of the cascades.

Hello Dave-Tas Thanks for the cache

On a recent trip from Queenstown I stopped off and went for a little walk along the new track that at the moment takes you most of the way to "Horsetail Falls"

The falls cascades over 50 metres down a steep cliff face, and can be seen from the road.

Hello Dave-Tas Thanks for the cache

I found the Lost Falls on a recent trip caching on the East Coast.

Not much water at this time of year.

Lost Falls are located south of Lake Leake Head south along the ‘M’ road until you see the signposted turnoff to Lost Falls. There are basic picnic facilities at the reserve but no toilets. If you want to picnic we suggest you visit Meetus Falls Forest Reserve. There are two easy walks at Lost Falls, suitable for all ages and all levels of fitness. A short walk (10 minutes return) winds through the dry open forest onto a rocky outcrop. From the outcrop there are extensive views of the Freycinet Peninsula and surrounding coastline. The other walk takes you to the Lost Falls Lookout. Perched high above the forested gorge, the Lookout provides breath-taking views of steep valley, Lost Falls Creek and the waterfall.

Third Waterfall at Morialta Conservation Park, South Australia.

Most of the time this waterfall is a mere trickle, but it was showing its full splendour to us after a couple of days of near torrential rain. Picture attached.
Thanks Dave-Tas for providing the locationless cache.

Hello Dave-Tas Thanks for the cache.

Meetus Falls is between 45m and 64m high on the Cygnet River.
There is a good picnic shelter and toilet at the car park.
It's a 20 minute return walk to the viewing platform.

I have been to the Meetus Falls three times now caching. On the first and second times there I didn't find it but struck it lucky on the third trim thanks to a good hint from a fellow cacher.

Hello Dave-Tas thanks for the cache.

I was at Storeys Creek on the weekend and found a cache next to the Story falls so I took a photo of then.
Story's Falls is a cascading waterfall situated on Story's creek, near Rossarden, Tasmania. The waterfall works it way down from Stacks Bluff.

The Storys Creek Tin Mining Co was formed in 1882, the area being a remote miners’ camp – just a collection of simple huts and the mine plant – until 1925, when new houses for the staff, as well as a number of new huts for the workers, were also built.
The town of Rossarden was built to house the workers at the ‘Aberfoyle Tin No Liability’ mine, which started producing tin in September 1931. The township of Rossarden was built a mile from the mine site, in the mid 1930s.
By the early 1970s, Aberfoyle had control of both mines but a dramatic drop in metal prices in 1972 saw production drop at Storys Creek, all support facilities, administration and milling being provided at Rossarden. Forestwood Holdings bought the mine from Aberfoyle in April 1981, then closed all operations in February 1982. By October 1982 the town’s population had dropped from over 500 when the mine was going, to approximately 90.

Today Rossarden has around 60 residents. Storys Creek has only one permanent family, plus the Riverside High School outdoor centre, which has been operating since 1975.

Both towns offer striking mountain views of Ben Lomond. There are also wild deer to be seen in Rossarden, as well as many native animals and birds, and one can sometimes watch wedge-tail eagles soaring above the town.

Today we drove out to Berry Springs to collect a waterfall as part of the Summer Scavenger Series. Sadly we couldn't get very close (apparently being eaten by a croc is bad for tourism), but in the dry season this is a very popular swimming spot and well worth a visit.

DRAPERS CREEK, COLO VALE, NSW
Geocaching took me to a lovely waterfall in an area I had never been and never knew about. We had a lovely time clambering down to the bottom of the fall and jumping around behind it. It isn't very big, and the photo doesn't do it justice height wise, but it's still lovely, and the clamber down can be quite steep depending which way you go.

Oxford Falls in Sydney's north normally puts on a much better display than this, and regularly closes the road above during heavy rain.

Queen Mary Falls.

This one is a popular spot around 45 minutes East of Warwick, close to the Town of Killarney just inside the QLD Border. You can continue all the way to Brisbane along this road but I have never done so. This waterfall is close to the headwaters of the Condamine river, which eventually finds its way into the Darling and Murray rivers

There is a easy circuit starting from the carpark and passing a look out at the top of the falls and the bottom of the falls. This is a popular spot. You should have no trouble finding it as it is well signposted.

Nelsons Falls Tasmania

I stopped off at these falls on my way back from working on the West coast of Tasmania, it had been raining for about a week when I called at this one and it was going full boar with me getting wet from the spray even with me being a fair way away from the falls themselves.

In the past I have visited another Falls in Strahan called Hogarth Falls it was throwing it down and I got soaked just to get the cache and it was night time.

You can read my GC log if you like https://coord.info/GLN5PFAC

Only a series of little waterfalls. It could probably be referred to a cascades, but its still living water falling over rocks - so I'll call it a waterfall.

These were at the Currumbin Rock Pools, inland in the Currumbin Valley in Queensland. The area is very popular in summer.

Must admit I am a iPhoneographer, so while you wont get 'fluffy water' from slow shutter speeds, I do tend to concentrate on capturing colours and textures.

Thanks for the locationless.

Today we concentrated on finding caches that fitted our criteria for the Clan Minotaur Summer Scavenger Series Clan Minotaur and this was one of them.

Horseshoe Falls
Lawson, NSW

Returned here to this Blue Mountains locale with Mrs. pjmpjm and her friend Jana, only to find that on our first geocaching trip we'd entirely missed what is probably the nicest of all the local waterfalls.

What we thought was Horseshoe Falls was actually Glow-Worm Falls.

On this visit, we found the real Horseshoe Falls, less than 200 meters away.

'Wentworth Falls' in the Blue Mountains is actually a series of waterfalls. It's quite a spectacular place. There are at least three falls, maybe more, depending on how you count . . .

Was down here with rogerw3 searching for 'On the Run.'

We were successful! Had to descend 600 metres from the top.

Engineers Wall Waterfall

Off Kenny Street
Mt. Victoria, NSW

This little Blue Mountains waterfall will no doubt become more impressive after a bit more rain. We've had a dry spell and the flow was very slight this afternoon. Still, a very nice place to visit.

Lindeman Road
North Leura, NSW

One of the smallest waterfalls you'll ever find, but in a very beautiful place not far from my home.

Mrs. pjmpjm thought this might be a 'home for a gnome' but when I saw the picture, I thought it looked like a waterfall.

This spot is looked after by Bushcare and we go here every week to get our spring water. We've been drinking this crystal-clear spring water for seven years now.

Wandering around near the campground off the end of Bedford Road (Murphy's Fire Trail), we came upon this beautiful place.

EBOR FALLS
Plenty of waterfalls to be found on Waterfall Way in Northern NSW. With Wollomombi Falls already logged we've picked Ebor Falls on the Guy Fawkes River at Ebor. A popular rest stop for travellers with easy access to great views of the Upper and Lower Falls.

Our bushwalking group passed by Kings Falls in Arthurs Seat State Park and as there was an 'unloved' GCA cache near the base, I decided to climb down to the bottom at about 13:45 on the flimsy pretext of taking a pickie of the falls (which I did) as opposed to grabbing the cache (which I also did Wink).

I checked to see if the falls had been logged and found they hadn't - until now of course. Dancing

The falls are part of a very pleasant nature circuit complete with information signs. The sign for the falls reads as follows:

Kings Falls
Port Phillip Bay was formed when the land sank between fault lines. Kings Falls are located on one of these, the Selwyn Fault.

As water flowed from the Arthurs Seat ridge to the Bay, it cut through the softer layers of soil and rock to expose hard granite. This granite is now the face of Kings Falls.

In dry weather the creek is just a trickle, and after a downpour its flow increases for a short time.


Thanks Dave- Tas.

The final falls of this famous Blue Mountains 'cascade' really amount to a mini waterfall!

Mrs. pjmpjm snapped this geocacher standing quite near . . .
