    Access is via walking path via the John Forrest National Park location, NOT via Falls Road, where Maps try to navigate most people to. Just put John Forrest National Park into your navigation system and then walk to the Falls via the trails. :)

    Excellent walking trails around historic rail routes with natural scenic settings and waterfalls for a beautiful day out. Free parking, barbecues, picnic tables, rest rooms, grassed areas and also a restaurant available at this park. Could be busy during weekends and holidays but still has ample space to accommodate.

Great walk which includes, Birds chirping Seeing people biking Kids playing around People going near the water Lots of photos were been taken Breathtaking view just getting full view of the waterfall. Will go next time to explore another area.

    Nice 800m walk from carpark. National Park fees apply. The falls flow through winter but After a good rain storm the falls are flowing best.

    Iโ€™m unsure if I arrived at the correct place! Signage in or around the park is terrible. All access to water areas seemed closed off. I walked to where some water was running. Private property signs abound!! There appears to be no or very little parking at the end of the road where Google took me. Be prepared to walk a lot to this โ€˜water fallโ€™.

    Explorable and wonderful for photos! Advise going from the trail and going off the path

  • 5/5 Chandan G. 8 months ago on Google
    If you got leisure time do visit the place, far from the Perth city but view to city is great, although need good sunny weather without clouds.

  • 4/5 Dominic S. 9 months ago on Google
    Interesting waterfall, great trails around the place as well, but very little directional signage so took a while to figure out how to get around.

  • 5/5 Tyler C. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely waterfall spot in winter months with a pleasant and picturesque walk to get there along the historical railways trail. The waterfall is normally dry over summer months but the nice rocks formations and views remain.

  • 5/5 Leilopo T. 1 year ago on Google
    Average trail to walk, good for bikes and lots of space to sit and enjoy the falls.

  • 5/5 Gordon Y. 1 year ago on Google
    Great outing on our doorstep. Was there within 45mins from the coast and saw a great sunset!

  • 5/5 Duncan L. 5 years ago on Google
    Beautiful place to visit. Parking fee a little steep but paying for the upgrade of the facilities.

  • 5/5 Chris K. 6 years ago on Google
    John Forest National park, around 12$ for a car, cash or credit card on entry. Lots of BBQ spots and you can go for swim in the river. Great day out.

  • 5/5 ben m. 3 years ago on Google
    Always beautiful, it's incredible to see the difference between when it's flowing during the winter, and how it changes in summer.

  • 5/5 David K. 3 years ago on Google
    Beautiful blustery rainy day trudge.

  • 4/5 Selen T. 2 years ago on Google
    Good place to visit but its very tricky to get there.

  • 3/5 Lindsy G. 2 years ago on Google
    The Hovea Falls is an easy walk from Carpark. And if your lucky, you may see native animals, like Kangaroos and Red-tail Black-Cockatoo, plus many other Birds. Over the past couple of months wildflowers have been plentiful.

  • 5/5 Chandesh S. 2 years ago on Google
    Only about a kilometre and a little away from the car park. Nice easy walk. Great place for a picnic too.
