About Victoria Valley Falls
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. As you can see from the photo at the top of this page, there really wasn’t much to the waterfall as Kenmere Creek had very low flow. We couldn’t tell if this was because we didn’t come early enough in the season (i.e. dead smack during Winter or early Spring) or if we didn’t come soon enough after a heavy rain or if it was yet another victim of the drought that plagued our November 2006 visit to the southeast of Australia.
Even though the track had signs, as we followed them, we realized that along the way the track seemed to have disappeared and started to meander away from the waterfall. The overgrowth got denser and at some point we decided not to proceed any further and just turn back given the state of the falls. The signage was deceptive in that it got us thinking this was a developed and easier-to-follow track than it really was.

There was plenty of rain leading up to our trip, as well as on the first couple of… ...Read MoreNearest Waterfalls
