  Nice place for a swim, but it's a bit touristy, with the rubbish and cigarette butts along the track to prove it. Water is often icy cold.

  A magical place to visit all year round, great hiking trails, good swimming pools and one of the best waterfalls FNQ has to offer! And the walk is super easy, don't be fooled by some of the comments - take a friend with you and the views will make you forget that you're exercising.

  A beautiful waterfall (or series of) and a collection of swimming holes too.

  Beautiful spot, even in winter. This is going to be a must visit place in the summer. Sitting under the trees in the water and watching the world go by.

  The road in has about 8km of unsealed road that's not suitable for caravans that ends in the car park and then it's about 1km of uphill to get to the falls. The track is fairly good up to a viewing area, but I reckon some of the best bits are beyond that. You'll need to scramble up granite boulders to access the swimming holes beyond. The white, smoothed granite can be very slippery at the edges of the pools and anything underwater will be like ice, so take care. We spent a lovely couple of hours playing around in the upper pools. The water is cool at first but once you're in it's lovely. Do watch for leeches though!
