From the travel guide. Select a place for details, a map and what is nearby.
The Tarra Valley Rainforest Walk (coloured on map) is an easy 1.4-km 40-minute return walk, passing through ancient myrtle beech forest from over 20 million years ago. Unfortunately, much of the area today has been slowly taken over by eucalypt trees, but it remains strong in the area it survives in.
Although the falls itself may not be very impressive, it's very easily accessible as you can just park and find the waterfall at the instant (no walking required).
The only eatery in the area with relatively reasonable prices. Dine-in includes al fresco dining. The layout of the cafe makes it so you have great views of the forest surrounding you while you enjoy your coffee or pie.
A guesthouse with 7 rooms, but only one has a 4-person capacity. It contains most modern facilities; all rooms have individual bathrooms.
If you are using a navigation app, direct your GPS to the town of Balook.
Read in the guideMost of the walks around the visitor centre can be reached on foot. However, if you are visiting the Tarra Valley for the two waterfalls, you will need to drive.
