Information

Tucked away in the dense rainforest close to Crystal Cascades is Fairy Falls, a picturesque waterfall as magical as its name. Some rock hopping is required to reach this natural plunge pool, but the end result is definitely worth it. The track begins in the scrub on the left side of Crystal Cascade’s carpark and when the well-worn path opens to the creek, it’s time to ditch your shoes and follow the creek bed up for a few minutes. Hot tip: The journey from carpark to falls should take no more than 15 mins. Don’t be fooled by the mistaken path created by the footsteps of past travelers that appears to take you on a very steep incline away from the creek.
