    Dales Gorge is amazing. There is the Rim walk (which we did), the Gorge Trail (which we didn't do), Fortescue Falls and Fern Pool (which we did).
    We did Fortescue Falls and Fern Pool first.
    There are 280+ steps down to Fortescue Falls and then a 300m, grade 4 walk to Fern Pool with a very cold swim at the end. The steps were even so it was a relatively easy walk.
    Fortescue Falls is at the bottom of the steps but still a rock climb to get to the water.
    Fern Pool was beautiful but cold we jumped in and started to swim out to where the sun was but it didn't get any warmer. Mark decided to get out the cold water was breath taking and not in a good way.    Read more
