Popular with visitors for over 150 years, Strath Creek Falls is located in the Mount Disappointment State Forest.
The walk leads to the amazing view of the falls cascading 50 metres over the rock face and into the gully below. The return walk is about 1 kilometre and takes 45 minutes. Although the Falls are best viewed after heavy rain, it’s still beautiful no matter the season.
The Falls are located on a 20 minute drive from Strath Creek, 8 kilometre along the Murchison Spur Road from the intersection with Strath Creek Road (at the Murchison Gap and Murchison Lookout). The last 1 kilometre drive down to the Falls carpark is steep and is not suitable for caravans, buses, campervans and the like.
Why not make a weekend of it? The Mt Disappointment State Forest provides a beautiful haven for wildlife, visitors and associated recreation activities.
