Norfolk Falls walk

North West, NSW

Short steep 1.1 km return to a fenced lookout over Coolah Tops’ largest waterfall, a 35 m basalt plunge.

About this place

Norfolk Falls walk starts at Norfolk Falls picnic area and drops on many steps through ribbon gums to a fenced lookout atop the falls. NPWS lists 1.1 km return (45 min–1 hour, Grade 3); Norfolk Island Creek falls 35 m over black basalt into a pool. Look for wombat holes, crimson rosellas and wedge-tailed eagles. Best after rain; the eastern park closes when roads are slippery.
