Ellinjaa Falls

Very nice water falls specially in rainy days. 6/7 mins walk, around 70/75 steps but easy. No toilets or change rooms. Could not identify track to go top of falls.

Very nice waterfall which has a cave underneath. From the car park it's just a short walk downhill, steep at times, great place for a swim, there inst any flat area to sit on so not suitable for a picnic. It's part of the waterfall circuit, definitely worth a look.

It was a pretty falls to look at for sure, worth the walk downwards lots of stairs probably took 2-3 mins to go down to the base of the waterfall but seems dangerous to step into the waters cauS it fast flowing and it was not worth the drive if you are coming from a distance, I would highly recommend babinda boulders instead of Mila Mila and ellinja falls

Cute little waterfall. Easy walk to get to. Friendly rooster in the parking lot

This waterfall is gorgeous! It’s is a very short walk with a lot of stairs but very worth the walk down. Once you get down there, there’s so much to explore. You can explore the rocks, the stream, or even go for a swim in the water hole created by the falls.It’s a seriously s beautiful place and on the day we went was quite peaceful with very few people visiting. Free entry to the falls and a view like this is well worth the visit.

Oh my!Northern Queensland has a lot of amazing waterfalls and Ellinjaa is one of them.♥️♥️♥️

Great spot of natural beauty and a pretty safe swimming hole. Easy parking and turning for a van. Walk way has some steps but is paved and a reasonably easy walk down and back on the same track.

Great waterfalls. You can walk to the river in 10 min and see the falls completely. The way is easy to walk from the parking area.

One of 3 amazing waterfalls along Teresa Creek Road. Turn right off the Palmerston Highway when coming from Innisfail, then keep driving around to see Zillie Falls (via a steep track so have walking shoes), then onto Millaa Millaa falls
