Overview
Highlights
Located amongst tranquil Australian bush with lush tree ferns, the Bindaree Falls are a short 10 minute walk off Bindaree Road. A wooden viewing platform passes behind the falls allowing you to enjoy the curtain of water cascading from the rocks above.
From November to June, the falls can be accessed via the Circuit Road around Mt Stirling. From the turn off to Craig’s Hut, continue along the Circuit Road for 10 kilometres until you reach the sign to Bindaree Road on the left. Turn left and continue about five kilometres until just before the bridge. A short walking track up to the falls starts here.
Please note access by vehicle is not possible from June to November due to seasonal track closures in the High Country. Most tracks reopen on the Friday prior to the Cup Day long weekend, however the four-wheel-drive track over the summit of Mt Stirling remains closed from May until the end of November. Seasonal closures generally operate from the long weekend in June through to the beginning of November, but may be extended due to seasonal conditions.

Important Information
Guidelines
- Always do some research before heading out for your journey. Visit the parks website for up to date information on the current conditions.
- Stay safe and get the most out of your park visit by preparing for natural hazards and other outdoor risks. You are responsible for your own safety and the safety of those in your care.
- • Always enjoy waterfalls from trails and marked viewing points. Do not climb over barriers as cliff edges and slippery surfaces may cause injury or death.
- • Only swim where permitted. Don’t jump from cliff edges into water bodies.
- • Swimming near or under waterfalls can be dangerous due to strong currents, submerged hidden rock ledges and other dangers. The force of a waterfall can be incredibly strong and unfortunately, many people have drowned. Follow warning signs and take caution.
- Wear suitable footwear and ensure to bring a hat and sunscreen to protect yourself from the elements.
- Plan ahead and ensure to take enough food and water for your journey.
- Always stay on the marked tracks where possible. Never climb fences, they are there for your own safety.
- Please consider the environment, take your rubbish with you or place in the bins provided. We want to ensure these beautiful places are still here for our future generations to enjoy.
- Ensure to let a responsible adult know of your plans and report back into them once you have finished exploring for the day.
- National park and camping fees may apply, check the parks website for bookings and further details.
