A small tranquil waterfall accessible via an easy 2-kilometre walk. Includes a lookout and a small side path if you want to walk to the top of the waterfall (if you do this, do it with extreme care). Parking available in front of Glenbernie Orchard.
A natural pool, completely okay for swimming, just respect that the land is sacred.
15 km one way, 3 hr.
A 2.8-km return walk, perfect to go on a hot summer day. In the Dharawal language, jingga means ‘nice and sweet’, in relation to the water.
By other forms of transport
