The tallest of the falls in Cleland Conservation Park drops into a fern-lined gully just above Adelaide's eastern suburbs. A short, easy path leads to the base, and a steeper track continues up towards Mount Lofty. The flow is strong from June to September and thin by late summer.

Good to know

  • Go after a few wet days for the best flow
  • Park at the bottom and walk the sealed path
  • Combine with the climb to Mount Lofty if you have a few hours
