About this place
Enjoy the lovely bush walk down to the impressive Coal Creek Falls. A nice place to cool off with a swim in the hot summer months.
The route
The path gently descends down to the Coal Creek valley though a mixed beech-podocarp forest. The pool below the falls is a nice place to cool off with a swim in the hot summer months. Take particular care to look out for underwater rocks and logs before jumping in.
