    This hike offers a bit of everything: stunning waterfalls, challenging rock steps, and spectacular views from Briggs Bluff. The track includes steep sections, creek crossings, and some exposed cliff edges, which can make for a tricky and exhilarating experience. It’s important to note that the section beyond the falls, heading towards Gar (Mt Difficult) and Briggs Bluff, is rated Grade 4: Hard, designed for fit and experienced hikers who are well-prepared. Those up for the challenge will be rewarded with breathtaking views and a bit of adventure.
