Why this Hike
This walk along Liffey Falls Track shows of four unique cascading falls starting with Alexander Falls and fishing with Liffey Falls. The area was saved by former political leader Bob Brown in the early 1990’s and sparked the creation of the well-known preservation charity, Bush Heritage Australia. Today this trail offers a fantastic short walk suitable for most hikers as they experience the vast biodiversity of the local area and falls.

Starting from Upper Liffey Falls Carpark this walk follows Liffey Falls Track as it weaves across Liffey River past four cascading falls. The four falls you will pass on the walk are Alexander Falls followed by Hopetoun Falls and Albert Falls before reaching Liffey Falls at the end of the track. Once you are done admiring the cascading falls, return along the same track to the carpark where you started you walk to finish your hike.
