    Gorgeous falls! A steep but easy hike down to the falls but absolutely worth it. My husband and I went late in the day and the sun was sitting just at the top of the falls, making photos very difficult. Iโ€™d recommend going in the morning to get better photos. Thereโ€™s a viewing platform at the bottom of the falls so you do not get wet.

    Amazing spot if youโ€™re willing to drive the distance - keeping in mind itโ€™s a very scenic drive. About 45 minutes or so from St Helens, although we drove from Launceston which was about 2 hours. A magnificent view of the waterfall can be seen from the path close to the car park, and the viewing platform from the bottom of the waterfall looking up. We went at 7pm and no one else was there, perfect time of day โ˜€๏ธ

    Surely the most beautiful walk in Tasmania to a spectacular waterfall. Mother Nature at her best. The walk is easily accessible and has a gentle gradient. A low level of fitness is fine and it is a 25-30min walk. I took 1.5hrs because I couldn't stop taking photographs!

    Best waterfall so far in Tasmania. Very easy to get too, sealed road. Easy walk down to the viewing platform. Excellent waterfall. Big drop. Lots of water (32,000-200,000 l/min) , great bit of rainforest on the way down. There is a pub and cheese shop about 4 minutes away as well. Worth the detour too or from St Helens.

    Pretty short walk, took about 40 minutes return and there's only an upward incline on the way back to the road. I'm a big fan of rainforest-like bush, and the track was under shade for most of the track. It was also really cool walking through there too. The waterfall was one of (if not THE most) beautiful waterfall I have ever seen. My only issue was that it was super busy, and many people were going off the track and taking pictures on the waterfall, which was a bit disrespectful to the environment and the other people trying to enjoy this site.

    Waterfall chasing is fun, particularly when it's bucketting down with rain. I attended this waterfall after a week of rainfall; in fact, it was raining the very day I was at the waterfall. The walk to the waterfall is easy. Slight slope down about 1-2km of well-maintained paths that wind through Tasmania's gorgeous forests. The riverside / streams are picturesque and the plant life is lush. The waterfall itself is absolutely breath taking. Words cannot describe the absolute majesty of standing beside it while the white waters are raging. You just FEEL the rumble of the power in your torso. Haha. It was probably one of the most powerful waterfalls I've seen in the State of Tasmania. All I can say is - if you're in Tassie's top East end and you like waterfalls, just go to this place. You will NOT regret it.

    Incredible waterfall. You can get directly to the waterfall by walking the way from the "St Columba Falls Carpark". Is is a very easy short track of about 10min. Since this fall is easier to access there are a bit more people walking abound. However it is one of the biggest in Tasmania. Defiantly a must see!

    Great walk into the falls and a fantastic viewing platform. Well worth a visit.
