Wentworth Falls located in the Blue Mountains National Park is a spectacular waterfall with magnificent views. One of the most picturesque falls in the mountains, it is where the Jamison Creek drops over the escarpment and plunges 297 metres over the upper and lower falls into a large pool before flowing down the creek into the Valley of the Waters.

Bushwalks in the area vary from short 10 minutes to full day walks in the valley. National Parks and Wildlife Services produce a booklet with maps and information on the walks.

Barbecue and picnic facilities are available and it is about two kilometres from Wentworth Falls station.

Important Information

Guidelines

Always do some research before heading out for your journey. Visit the parks website for the most up to date information.
Ensure you observe all safety signs. Always stay on the marked tracks where possible. Never climb fences, they are there for your own safety.
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 always ensure to bring a hat and sunscreen to protect yourself from the elements when exploring Australia.
Plan ahead and ensure to take enough food and water for your journey.
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.
Parking, camping and national park fees may apply. See parks website for more details.
Please do not feed the wildlife.
