Simpson Falls is a beautiful small cascade flowing over rocky ledges along a forested creek, and is most impressive after periods of rain. There are several walking tracks and picnic areas nearby, making it an ideal stop for a break or a scenic lunch while exploring the Mount Coot-tha Loop and surrounding bushland trails.

A bridge leads over the water, and there are plenty of benches right next to it, inviting you to rest.
