Minyon Falls lookout
Highlights
- Admire the breathtaking cascades of Minyon Falls from the lookout platform, revealing the stunning valley below.
- Listen to the soothing sounds of local wildlife amidst the peaceful ambience of the lush surroundings.
- Cool off in the beautiful pool at the base of the falls, surrounded by palm trees and eucalypts.
- Explore bushwalks from the picnic area, including the scenic Minyon Falls walking track leading to the falls' base.
The view from Minyon Falls lookout is the best in the area. From the lookout platform you can admire not only the falls themselves and the valley beneath, on a clear day you might be lucky and see all the way out to the coast.
Watch the cascades flow over Minyon Falls to a deep palm-shaded gorge roughly 100m below, and enjoy the sounds of local wildlife, the peaceful ambience and the spectacular natural surroundings. The tops of the cliffs are forested with Australian eucalypts, like blackbutt and scribbly gum, and a beautiful pool at the base of the falls is an ideal place to cool off and relax.
Minyon Falls is great for a quick stop, but if you’d like to spend longer at this majestic location there’s a picnic area with plenty of shady trees and picnic tables. There are also a couple of bushwalks that leave from the picnic area, including Boggy Creek walk which leads to Rummery Park campground, and Minyon Falls walking track which takes you down to the base of the falls.
And while Minyon Falls does offer stunning vistas and beautiful scenery, it’s more than just a spot…
