Information

The largest and most picturesque falls on the Hopkins River set against lush dairy country. These are the widest falls in Victoria at an impressive 90m. Gas BBQs and toilets provided. For a few days in early summer each year, the falls are the scene for one of nature’s most extraordinary migrations, as short-finned eels negotiate the falls on their migration to and from their spawning grounds in the Coral Sea (3000 km away).
