Russell Falls & Horseshoe Falls

This morning was beautiful and foggy when we woke and it wasn't raining 🙌 after a quick breakfast we headed out to do the Three Falls Walk. This walk encompasses, Russell Falls, Horseshoe Falls the Tall Trees walk and Lady Barron Falls.

We are so glad we waited and didn't try to do them in the rain yesterday because it was glorious today. The sun even came out!

Russell Falls is spectacular! Back in the 1800's a gentleman called Louis Shoobridge found them on his land and wanted them preserved, he had a 300 acre section made into a reserve in 1885 and in 1917 it was incorporated into Mt Field National Park.

It's a very easy walk to the Falls, they have made it wheelchair accessible as well.

From there it's a short 10 minute walk to Horseshoe Falls. I had a lyrebird walk right in front of me and then start scratching around, it wasn't bothered by us at all!

Horseshoe Falls is well worth the short walk, you do start getting used to beautiful waterfalls and the amazing green scenery along the way!Read more
