Horseshoe Falls

Not very good. Don't bother

Easy pleasant walk. No facilities

Easy walk ... signpost for Horseshoe Falls at the end of the track in the wrong place. Backtrack about 50 metres to find the falls.

A small bushwalking track culminating in a beautiful outcrop waterfall, simply follow the signs, but be careful of the stone steps as one or two have worn away a bit.
The way back is a bit of a climb, I would not recomend to people who don't like hills.

My fav place. Great for walks, picnic on a rock or to just chill and take photos of waterfalls.

One of the best walks I've done so far with barely​ anyone around and that in a Saturday.

This waterfall is tucked away down some secluded pathway. No signed parking so just park on the curb nearby. The hike is about 1km through a dirt track and tree roots. Unfortunately the waterfall is quite small, with a small amount of water so not the most photogenic. Perhaps try venture inwards towards Oaklands waterfall

Burgess Falls, Horseshoe Falls, Glow-Worm Nook Falls
Burgess and Horseshoe falls are short walk on from Oakland falls. Follow the signs taking you down some steep rocks to the falls, the track loops around after Burgess Falls so you can keep on following it to get back.
Glow-Worm Nook Falls is another waterfall that flows over an overhang and small cave. This one is a bit of a tight squeeze and a struggle to shoot from behind. You can access this one by walking in behind Oakland Falls, out the other side and up the slope for 50 odd meters.
Oakland Falls is the main draw card in Hazelbrook and is unique in that you can walk behind and around the fall in its entirety. The falls flow down an overhang with a shallow cave offering protection from rain and a path to the other side. The cave and overhang gives you a great opportunity to shoot pointing outwards or through the waterfall. The large rocks at its base add further interest especially with the addition of a polarizing filter which will bring out the rich red colour. There’s plenty of foreground interest about and even a few rocks you can precariously perch yourself on to shoot facing the waterfall. Or if you are feeling brave you can jump in the water, just be careful the current can move pretty quick after lots of rain.
Access to Oakland falls is via a walk starting at the end of Alexander Ave, Hazelbrook. You can park on the grass at the very end of the street. Here’s a link to the location on Google Maps. I haven’t found a good map of the area detailing where the waterfalls are however it’s pretty obvious when you get down there. The only waterfall that wasn’t obvious to me was Oakland Falls, you need to go left when you come to the bottom of the hill and hit the stream. Taking a right will lead you to the other waterfalls (Burgess Falls, Horseshoe Falls). The entire loop track will only take an hour or so to get round without stopping for photos. I ended up spending a good few hours down there taking my time. Access via Winbourne Road is also possible.
