Dangar Falls

Ebor Falls seemed to us to be a pair of attractive waterfalls with a gorgeous two-tiered upper falls (see photo above) and a plunging lower tier. This was yet another waterfall in the waterfall-…
Newell Falls and Sherrard Falls

Nelson Falls
Nelson Falls was a gorgeous 30m high wall of water shaped like an inverted wine glass. Julie and I were very pleasantly surprised to see this waterfall pumping the way it did on our first visit…

Victoria Valley Falls (or just Victoria Falls) was kind of an unfortunate follow up act to Nelson Falls as Julie and I were driving from Queenstown in the west towards Hobart out east…
Russell Falls and Horseshoe Falls
Russell Falls could very well be our favorite waterfall in Tasmania. It was certainly the best known and most popular waterfall that we had visited in the state. In fact it had been said that it…
