Horseshoe Falls walking track is a pretty on-leash bush walk in Hazelbrook, listed among the Blue Mountains' dog-friendly council reserves. Dogs are welcome on-leash, and there is water along the way for a cool-down. It is not too demanding, though some steeper sections can get slippery after rain, and the trailhead is a little tucked away off Oaklands Road. A scenic walk for a dog that enjoys a bush track.
Dogs are welcome on leash here. This is a council-listed pet-friendly walk/reserve. Keep your dog under control and follow signs on site. (Source: Blue Mountains.)
Beautiful spot to walk with my dog! Met others playing with babies and pups in the water. Not too hard, even at the steep parts where recent rains had made everything slippery and uneven. Not a huge amount of signage but just keep following paths and you'll find something wonderful 😊
Start to this walking track is kind of hidden and not too obvious as you driving along Oakland’s road. There on the corner with Hall pde you will see small off the street parking lot. It is moderate track and it is kind of loop walk with few smaller falls : Horseshoe, Oaklands and Burgess Falls. Did find signs bit confusing but at the end found our way around and did enjoy the walk. Some parts can be easily done with children. We also came across some people with their dogs off-lead, walking around and swimming in the small water pools. Did not bother us but find it bit inconsiderate to wild life
Horseshoe Falls is truly a hidden gem in the Blue Mountains! The hike is easy to moderate, making it perfect for families — I went with my kids and they absolutely loved every bit of it. The trail is scenic and rewarding, with plenty of little spots to pause and enjoy nature along the way. It took us about 2 hours to complete at a relaxed pace, which felt just right. The only downside is that parking can be a bit tricky, so it’s best to plan ahead or arrive early. Overall, a beautiful spot that’s well worth the visit
Really good walking trails close by the blue mountains. Good for all ages, we took the 5 kids and it was a good walk for them too. Plenty to look at on the way to the falls, there were 3 different ones that we stopped at along the way. They werent to far off the trail. All were a bit different and cool to be at, wish the pools were a bit deeper and we could have had a swim. Water was nice, cold and refreshing. Definitely worth going on the journey.
What a fantastic surprise! Came here spontaneously after visiting Scenic World in Katoomba and this little trail is SO MUCH BETTER! Absolutely incredible that this is basically someone’s backyard with people living mere minutes away. 🤯 All shots taken with mobile phone. Yes, you can get this close. 🤗
