Ok after high rainfall NOT good today on a humid dry summer day

Nice walk to therse waterfalls. Exercise caution with children as there are steep drops just off paths and some areas a bit slippery. Lovely and picturesque views.

A rough track most of the way,going down to dantes Glen was abit of a nightmare with the steps,the bridge was abit wobbly but the waterfalls were worth it. Couldn't see St micheals falls cause of a no through sign and couldn't see the other one cause empire pass was closed. The park had no tables or chairs for a picnic we were abit disappointed in it

Great place to go trail running. Lots of trails cross at this point. Lawson parkrun operated here every Saturday morning at 8am also. You don't need to go to the upper mountains for great trail running. The Mid Mountains is a trail runners paradise

Great place to start your walks from down to Dantes Falls and more.
