The start of the second rivers worth of waterfalls, not as impressive as the other side, but still worth a walk to see and this side is quieter from visitors if you want some peace and tranquility.

Hiking

Lovely trail, ending in an awesome waterfall. The trail has some really interesting features like silt mines along the way - it is fairly easy going, would recommend bringing waterproofs to go behind the waterfall which is an awesome feature.
