Basket Swamp Falls

New South Wales

Well worth the effort. Situated in Basket Swamp National Park, the little sibling to Bald Rock and Boonoo Boonoo. Please be aware that there are no infrastructure at the falls (picnic areas, BBQ, toilets, etc). There is a slippery fire trail where you can walk down to view the lower pools.

Comments

The main lower falls were stunning after the summer rains though flow appears to decrease significantly if there hasn't been rain.
