Horseshoe Falls is a wide, stepped drop reached by a climb from Russell Falls, and Lady Barron Falls is a smaller cascade at the far end of the loop. The 6 km circuit starts behind the Mount Field visitor centre and links the falls through tall swamp gum forest. Expect lots of steps, and the long wooden staircase back to the start.
