Beauchamp Falls

A beautiful walk through the rainforest. This walk has fewer walkways and man-made steps than other waterfalls in the area which made the walk more enjoyable to me. As a bonus you are allowed a swim once you reach the falls.

Easy-moderate 2.5km return walk to Beauchamp falls. Would recommend sturdy walking shoes as some sections near the waterfall get quite muddy and the rocks are slippery. Saw some people bring towels so I’m assuming you can swim but the water is very cold. Plenty of parking at the carpark. The road to the falls has a lot of potholes and is quite rocky so take care when driving. Public toilets also available at the carpark.

January 2023. Please note - Walk to the falls is now from the camping area only. The walk is 1.25 km each way. It has a fairly good down hill path most of the way until you get to the stairs which are quite steep with handrails. The waterfalls are spectacular. I visited 8 years ago when you could drive Beauchamp Falls road to the bottom of the valley and walk in for 5 minutes. This is no longer the case, so be prepared for a much longer walk.

This is a quick 15-20 minute hike with so much beauty! There are many verity if mushroom and plants the falls at the end are breathe taking.

To get to the falls, take the walking path from the picnic area, located off the Aire Valley Road from Beech Forest Road. The three-kilometre path is an hour's walk return, and requires reasonable fitness. The descent to the falls leads to a viewing platform (there is no access to the falls). The path back is steep and has steps that can be slippery when wet.

Such an amazing waterfall. We went early at around 8am and there was nobody there. The water was roaring with all of the rain we have had lately. A fairly steep descent and mud capable shoes are advised if looking at getting close to the waterfall on ground level. About a 15 min walk down and 20-25 mins back up with moderate fitness. Highly recommend visiting and check out the redwoods while you’re here.

Honestly one of the most beautiful falls to go see. You can also have a swim but the water is freezing. If swimming make sure to be careful of submerged trees and debris.

Another gem in within the Great Otway National Park, this is, arguably, one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the Great Otway National Park. The 3km (return) walk takes you through a beautiful forest filled with mountain ash and large myrtle beech trees as well as giant, thick ferns.The walk to and from the falls is moderate-easy. The walk towards the falls is downhill and the return is uphill (duh!). The return journey is a bit steep and there are a number of steps on the way, which could get a bit slippery with rain.To get to the falls, take the walking path from the Beauchamp Falls Campground located on the Beauchamp Falls Road. Once you turn off the Beech Forest-Mount Sabine Road, there's about a 3km drive along an unsealed/gravel road, but nothing a normal sedan cannot handle.

Oh my, stunning views. You walk down hill. We went on a rainy day. The floor was all mouchy. Just come well equipped with shoes and a raincoat. You not only get a lovely view from the platform but also from underneath. Just jump over a few rocks.

Really good waterfall to visit. Walk is not too long from parking lot. But can be a bit steep for some people.The end of trail with the waterfall is very satisfying.
