Victoria Falls & Silver Cascades

Starting from the carpark at the end of Victoria Falls Road, this steep return track to Victoria Falls requires moderate fitness. Almost as soon as you start the walk, you’ll reach Victoria Falls lookout. Stop to breathe in the mountain air and extraordinary views across the sandstone escarpment and Grose Wilderness. Listen for the calls of sulphur-crested and yellow-tailed black cockatoos. It’s hard to turn away, but to see the waterfall follow the track to the left of the lookout. The steep path zig zags down the sandstone cliff. Short side paths lead to pretty Victoria Creek Cascades and the top of Victoria Falls, as the main track continues down to the base of the waterfall. Bring a picnic lunch and enjoy the beautiful waterfall, which drops around 20m over a rock overhang. In summer, it’s a serene spot to relax in the shade of the lush canopy. The steep return back up to the carpark takes around 60 to 90mins. https://www.facebook.com/AskRozBlueMountains/posts/pfbid0B4iGhuR1R2DriYRkQzkpYw3eKcGjJCzu476fgBDQEianaRYZiLD5pyFpRoswttLkl Photo: Logan Spice
