    This is such a precious gem! I have only been at night to see the glow worms and I was given so much more! The waterfall at night was spectacular. The nocturnal animals were just wonderful! The glow worms, the bats, the trap door spiders, and a critter that we have yet to be able to identify! It is clean (except that they are updating the toilets) and small enough to see in one go but will leave you wanting to return! If you go for the glow worms, use your light to get you on the path where there is a handrail and then turn your torch off and walk the path in the dark if possible. The worms line the walk so much in some places that you feel like you are walking in space! And all of those leads you under the bridge where they seem to be everywhere in this wonderful atmosphere! It is an easy walk with a few steps going out but nothing strenuous to the average person or even child.

    If you're looking for a short walk with beautiful natural views, this is the place for you! This Springbrook natural bridge has amazing views of mountains, woods, waterfall and a glow worm cave! Don't let the short trip here fool you as you can stay for hours taking in all the natural beauty it has to offer!

    What a gem this place is. I could have spent hours just listening the the waterfall and nature in the background. I found it easy to get to the Natural Bridge, path was clean and well maintained, suitable for most fitness levels. There were some stairs right at the bottom.

    Great walk with information signs along the way. We only did the short trek. Come back at night and see the glow worms. We arrived back just after dark and there were fireflies all around. Make sure you use bug repellent for mosquitoes and a low light torch so you can see the fireflies and glow worms well. Excellent experience!

    An excellent choice for both families and tourists looking for an authentic and accessible nature experience, the Natural Bridge in Springbrook National Park, QLD, is a wonder to behold. This beautifully designed trail offers an easy walk, ensuring that visitors of all ages and abilities can immerse themselves in the beauty of the Australian landscape. The path guides you through verdant surroundings to a small, mystical cave where a waterfall gracefully flows through a top hole, creating a visual and auditory symphony. It's a scene that enchants both children and adults, captivating the imagination and invoking a sense of wonder. As night descends, the cave reveals another secret: a community of glow worms, whose gentle light transforms the cave into a starlit realm. The ethereal beauty of this phenomenon adds an extraordinary touch to a day filled with awe and exploration. Whether you're a local family looking for a weekend escape or a tourist seeking the magic of Australia's natural world, the Natural Bridge offers a spectacular adventure that's not to be missed. The combination of accessibility, natural beauty, and unique features like the glow worms makes this a highly recommended destination for all.

    It’s a stunning place to visit. The Natural Bridge is 400m from the entrance and 620m to walk back to the car park. The most easiest walking trail and one of the Gold Coast hinterland gems. *There are few staircases, stroller is possible to use if you don’t mind to carry it up and down* *Hinze Dam is 30 minutes away from the Natural Bridge and there is a cafe to relax and enjoy the view too*

    Absolutely gorgeous place! Not that long of a walk but plenty to see. You get to see the view of the waterfall from both top and bottom. And even go inside the cave. At night time there are glow worms and bats. Didn’t get a chance to see them but is on the list next time we visit. Has plenty of parking spots and there’s even toilets before you start your walk. Signage said that there are often snakes and bush turkeys. we enjoyed the experience, however heaps of tourists that spent a lot of time in the road taking photos so you will have to be patient or go super early when there’s fewer people.

    Well constructed path (1km circuit) through rainforest down to see the Natural Bridge cave and waterfall. Would be spectacular after a lot of rain but still a beautiful spot. Quite a few steps down and back, but mostly with railings in the steep part.

    This was a beautiful easy hike down to the natural bridge to see a unique waterfall. The waterfall is a good location to visit, however the walk to the waterfall is equally stunning. Highly recommended if you're after a rewarding short hike.

    An amazing walk down to an amazing view! Totally worth visiting! The wall down to the cave and the natural bridge is not too tiring and it doesn’t take too long. Took us around an hour and half but we stopped quite a bit to take photos 🥰

    This is a great little walk through some beautiful rainforest and creek scenery. Natural bridge itself is a very photogenic volcanic feature created by the flowing stream that has shaped the area. Try and get here as early as possible, this is a very popular place and can feel crowded. Toilet facilities available.

    Very beautiful and spectacular view. You will be admire the power natural and the beauty of the water fall through the rock. The trail is very easy and kids friendly suitable for the whole family. The rainforest area and trail are clean and well maintained.

    The best place I've visited in the recent times. I've been there in the afternoon and it was the best time to visit and I loved the greenery there as it rained the previous day and it looked more greener. The trek till the last was amazing and the walk through the woods was so so good and it is a lovely thing for nature lovers and walkers. There was a small waterfall flowing through it with a small cave. The path was beautifully constructed without causing any damage to the nature. There was even a cafe food truck at the entrance and the coffee there was amazing.

    We recently visited this beautiful spot while on holidays. This short walk with beautiful views of the waterfall is great for kids. Our 4 & 6 year old loved it. We look forward to returning and trying to see the glow worms.

    Nice but short. The area was well kept and provided some premium public facilities. The walk was nice, but very short. I went super early in the morning to dodge the crowd. Natural Bridge was a little bit under whelming, however I could imagine it would be quite impressive in the wet season. Definitely a few good photo opportunities for budding photographers

    Absolutely stunning during the day lots of water flowing sounded great. Wish we were allowed to swim hahah but if you come during the night you get to see the awesome glow worms. PLEASE DONT LET YOUR KIDS HAVE TORCHES BECAUSE THEY WILL SHINE LIGHT ON THEM. It's harmful and ruins the experience for everyone else.

    This place is spectacular! Haven't been in years but took our Japanese visitor there last week and she was blown away. Very, very popular so good luck getting a park on a weekend, but if you can get in, definitely worth it! Will be heading back with the good camera soon!

    Great walks and paths for a day to escape the hear of the beach. The cave is spectacular and remember to take a moment to stop and just admire each feature. Good parking nearby, definitely visit the cave and where the signs suggest taking the circuit clockwise, trust it :)

  • 5/5 Leo L. 6 months ago on Google
    A sealed circuit track takes you through the forest, across Cave Creek, and into the arched cave to witness the waterfall plunging from above. At night the cave is illuminated by thousands of glow-worms' tiny green lights. While glow-worms are visible year-round, their display is significantly reduced during the winter months. Interpretive signs along with the circuit highlight the park's special features. The hoop pines Araucaria cunninghamii that emerge through the thick greenery of the surrounding rainforest are living relics of the Jurassic Age—the age of the conifers—about 180 million years ago. These pines are 'living dinosaurs'—they are among the most primitive of conifers.

    An absolute must visit if you are on the Gold Coast. A relatively easy walk on a sealed path. There are amenities which a couple of picnic tables. Adequate car parking with access on a sealed road. Take your time on the walk and you may see some of the local wildlife. The falls a beautiful from above and below and also from within the cave. The cave is home to glow worms but we didn't see any although there were quite a few bats.

    It’s very spectacular to visit at night. Fireflies are like caterpillars that emit blue-white light, which is very beautiful. Remember to use red flashlights instead of white light, and protect nature together.

    The wonderful council workers are in the process of upgrading the entrance to Natural Bridge with toilets and eating areas. The 1k trip around is an easy walk. The steps may be difficult for some with disabilities. The end result is incredibly rewarding.

    My boyfriend took me here today. Absolutely worth the 1hr drive from Brisbane. It is breathtakingly gorgeous! my photo does absolutely not give it justice- it's just something you have to see in person.

  • 5/5 Yanni O. 8 months ago on Google
    Very short walk to the waterfall. I walked via the glow worm cave route. Went in the day, so there's no glow but maybe theres worms. Just can't see it. Since it's such a short walk, you can try walking the right turn route towards the right of the waterfall too. Went on a friday afternoon. Was quite crowded. Toilets were super clean and pretty from the outside!

  • 5/5 Lerong L. 9 months ago on Google
    A very easy walk to the attraction from the car park. You will be walking on an elevated wooden trail under the rain forest. Very stunning waterfall passing through the cave. Recommend to visit if you are in the Gold Coast or Brisbane area.

  • 3/5 Ellé 9 months ago on Google
    Very easy, a short paved walk to the cave. It was a lovely cave, the waterfall wasn't that impressive probably from lack of rainwater. The main issue is how packed out it is with people, numerous times it was difficult to get past ignorant people doing full blown photoshoots there, 🤔 I suppose it is so easy and accessable most of the influencesr generation go there. I'd definitely rather do a hike and see one that is more in the wild with less people, but obviously a lot of people like that this one is a very short and easy walk. For me it takes the fun out of it, I like tripping over numerous tree roots and scrambling over rocks! 😂 Lots of parking and the toilets were okay.

    You think that is a just falls but in real that is heaven. Unbelievable beautiful very relaxing place. Has lots of free parking lots. Area is so clean and natural. Has restrooms at the entrance and all the things are free. But there is no marketplace or shopping center close so do not forget to bring your own food or drinks

  • 5/5 Rachael A. 1 year ago on Google
    Gorgeous place to visit! Really easy loop track to the waterfall/glow-worm cave, although not wheelchair accessible. Strictly no swimming. Public toilets available and plenty of parking. Whatever you do, don't come on a weekend as it will be packed with loud kids and tourists. I went on a Monday morning and it was quiet so you could actually enjoy the views and sounds.

  • 5/5 Jared o. 10 months ago on Google
    Easily one of the best waterfalls out there. Such an easy walk nearly anyone could do it. Keen to get back of a night time to see the glow worms

  • 5/5 Julissa W. 10 months ago on Google
    Love this place. nice easy walk. Suitable for kids, the entire circuit is approximately 1 km.

  • 4/5 Kay 1 year ago on Google
    A Beautiful and scenic short walk with the track leading to a great waterfall that flows into a cave. Although, I wouldn't call it a "natural bridge" seeing as you can't walk over it and its not really a "bridge" at all. The only other gripe I had was with the general disregard of rules some members of the public had, with some people going of the path into areas that are off-limits and swimming despite multiple signs saying not too. Overall, a serene walk with people being the biggest nuisance being the public.

  • 4/5 Shyvonne L. 1 year ago on Google
    Relaxing and an easy walking path. Not stroller friendly as there are lots of stairs. Nevertheless, a lovely and beautiful walk. If you're lucky, you get to see glowing warms but the tip is to go after sunset for a better view of the glowing warms.

    We are first time visitors from New Zealand. We enjoyed walking through this native and natural park, using the constructed and manicured walking pathways. It is clearly evident that the park grounds, walkways and habitat are regularly maintained. The river and bush were clean and tidy, fences strong, pathways of asphalt. Unfortunately, the toilets were out of commission for construction and maintenance purposes - not known when they'll be back in action. The "one hour walk" was comfortably undertaken in 30 minutes without rushing. The waterfall and natural bridge is attractive, but not "wow" factor. Still, a pleasurable outdoors experience...
