Kondalilla National Park

Views were breathtaking, and the walk was worth the effort. If you plan to visit on your next holiday schedule an entire day, pack a picnic, your swimmers, and lots of water. Some of the trail railings and walkways require some repair for safety concerns.

Some parts of the circuit hike are fairy-tale level magical! Great swimming hole, amazing views, and very fun boulders to scramble around at bottom of falls. The park itself has several hiking and swimming options. Highly recommend the falls circuit for anyone who is in moderate shape (even kids about 5+ can manage).

We set off from the carpark to Kondalilla rock-pools at the top of the Kondalilla falls. Initially, we planned to walk to the rock-pools via the Picnic Creek Circuit (1.7km or a 20 min walk). It was busy. There were rock climbers and kids jumping off the rocks. It was hard to find a spot on the rocks to watch the waterfall. So we got bold, and decided to walk to the lookout, another 1.5km to the Kondalilla look-out. It was so beautiful, so we headed down further to the bottom of the falls. Little did we know we were about to walk the entire 4.8km Kondalilla Falls Circuit! The trail takes you right to the bottom of the falls, which had stagnant water, and was not as pretty as the rock-pools. However, the rainforest was beautiful. The walk back up was intense and we were definitely puffed out by the time we got back to the rock-pools. We only regret not having water & snacks, but we made up for it with a trip into the Montville fudge shop! Beautiful area, highly recommend doing the full circute.

Easy home through beautiful woods. Absolutely gorgeous and the cicadas are deafening. Our favourite part was the sublime swimming hole with waterfall. It was a surprisingly comfortable temperature. After we used the BBQ facilities which were very clean. A brush turkeys joined us.

A lovely park and great walk, quite a fair way down but well worth it and coming up took a bit but not hard at all just take your time.

The forests and waterfalls were beautiful. Watch out for the cheeky kookaburras wanting your lunch!

I can’t even express how much I loved this place! You have to follow some trails to reach different waterfalls. If you want to swim there is a nice swimming spot near a small waterfall and you have to walk all the way up and on the way you’ll see splendid lookouts on the forest. It’s simply amazing. When you reach the swimming spot make sure you follow the small river that goes out of the natural pool because there you can sit directly close to the main waterfall that you can observe from the other trail down there. Basically you can sit on the 90 meters high waterfall and touch the water ! It’s An amazing experience. From there you can walk all the way down to the bottom of the waterfall and also that area is amazing with lots of smaller waterfalls Also there are some really special trees and the light is unbelievable!

Really well set out walking trails, although could do with some more signs. I started walking down the track past the rock pool but turned around after 15 mins as there's no signals indicating where the track goes, how long it is, etc. The tracks to the waterfall lookout and rockpool are pretty easy, and the scenery is lovely.

A lovely national park that's easy to get to. We went on a Sunday morning and it was very busy, the carpark got full pretty quickly. Lots of people enjoying the walks and families there for a picnic in the picnic area. Nice facilities and walking trails are fairly well signposted. Have been here a few times now and will definitely be back again in the future
