Purling brook falls in Springbook National park

Purling Brook Falls in Springbook National Park is one of the most dramatic waterfalls in the region, plunging 300 feet into a gorge. The walking circuit to the base of the falls is a 4km return trip that will take approximately two hours. It’s certainly not a stroll – there are some steep ascents and 265 steps on the way. It’s less gruelling if you take the path left and walk the circuit in a clockwise direction. It’s a stunning walk through Gondwana and Eucalypt forests teeming with wildlife, down into the gorge, where you can enjoy fantastic views of the falls from below and cool down in the refreshing spray.
