Waterfall Track
A pleasant scramble for all ages which follows Dry Creek from the park entrance through native bush up towards a small waterfall and back again. Expect wet feet as you cross the stream several times. Flat grassy areas near the start are ideal for picnics. Great for young family groups, especially in summer.Not suitable for buggies. Dogs OK - keep them under control and remove droppings.
