when i went to evercreech falls it was the most amazing experience i have ever had. seeing the tallest white gum tree in the world at only the age of 10, it was quite extraordinary to see something like that. the history to these trees is quite good how des howe had saved these special […]

After staying overnight at Home Hill Beach House at Kingston Beach, take the short drive to the village of Snug. The road to the falls is signed. The bitumen runs out after about 3km so you need to be comfortable with gravel roads. From the car park it is another 500 meters walk to the […]

Beautiful but apparently little known falls in East Ridgley, Tasmania, on Darling river and accessible off a private farm. My sisters and I visited it as teenagers growing up on the neighboring property, and rarely escaped the leeches that accompanied us! 0 CommentsOnly logged in users can post a comment Please login or sign up […]

I had to move on, I’d booked a fishing trip for the next day and had only limited time to do another walk and get to the east coast. I opted for Cuckoo Falls, “…a few kilometres east of Scottsdale. The right turn from the Tasman Highway is well signposted. Follow the signs to the […]

My girlfriend and I visited Snug in October of last year. It was a bit of a hike up through muddy and uneven ground, and it rained a lot. Keeping that much water off a 10mm super wide lens with a 77mm filter diameter is tricky at best. Lovely spot though, would highly recommend. 0 […]

They are beautiful but Gunns want to log and clearfell around the falls and over the track – STOP THEM 0 CommentsOnly logged in users can post a comment Please login or sign up to comment

It is called Horse Tail Falls, as it looks like a horse tail whenever flowing. As we rarely get 4 days without rain, it flows every week. It takes less than half a day to start flowing, and continues for a day after. There is a short walking track to the top, which is lovely […]

It bode ill. “I can’t remember the last time it rained,” the man in Devonport had said. And there I was looking forward to photographing waterfalls. Things change though; by the time I reached St. Helens two days later I listened to the news and they said Mathinna had had 52 mm. Fate had dealt […]

The locals actually call this fall Horsetail Falls, not sure why. It is indeed seasonal. My partner and I have driven past this fall a number of times, most times there is water going over it but on other occasions there is none. The road coming out of Queenstown, named 99 bends by locals, hides […]

I was looking for waterfalls, unashamedly searching the internet for them. Thus it was that I came across Mathinna, situated in an area I’d never been before; but Tassie’s like that, there’s all sorts of stuff just off the main roads if you’re prepared to venture. To get there you have to find Fingal, west […]

I wonder how many “Horseshoe Falls” there are in the world? I’ve certainly seen a few and here is another to add to your collection. Once you’ve admired Tasmania‘s most famous waterfall, Russell Falls, there’s a track off to the right that takes you uphill. It ultimately goes to Lady Barron Falls but, en route […]

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 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…

Lady Barron Falls was a small cascading waterfall that was kind of away from the commotion of the nearby Russell Falls. We had originally intended to integrate visiting this waterfall…

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…

Before locals had informed me that this waterfall was actually called Horsetail Falls, I made up the name “Queenstown Falls” to refer to this very attractive waterfall that we stumbled upon when we…

Hogarth Falls was our waterfalling excuse to visit the quaint coastal township of Strahan. It was where Botanical Creek fell probably around 5-10m in cumulative height as there were further tiers…

Montezuma Falls had to have been one of the more impressive and memorable waterfalls that Julie and I had visited in Tasmania. It was definitely up there as one of the best waterfalls we had seen…

Crater Falls was a series of small cascades and waterfalls where each drop was on the order of 5m to 10m tall though the cumulative height could very well be on the order of more than 30m or so…

Neither Pencil Pine Falls nor Knyvet Falls were waterfalls that we expected to visit prior to our visit to Cradle Mountain National Park. It wasn’t until we noticed some maps in the visitor centre…
