Information

Shiprock Falls is a small but scenic waterfall and granite rock formation in the forest near Gembrook, east of Melbourne, inside Kurth Kiln Regional Park.What makes it interesting is actually the huge granite “Ship Rock” boulder beside the creek - the falls themselves are more of a cascade over mossy rocks than a dramatic drop. After rain they look much better.Easy short walk - about 300m return from the carpark with Picnic area, toilets and basic facilities.
