Fitzroy Falls - Cities, Towns and Localities

The small village of Fitzroy Falls lies at the edge of an escarpment, with steep cliffs that descend to the valley floor. It is also home to the popular natural attraction, a waterfall that was once known as ‘Throsby’s Waterfall’ after the explorer Charles Throsby, although now it is known as Fitzroy Waterfall.

The waterfall itself is fed by the Yarrunga Creek, which drops over 80 metres down the the escarpment and then flows into the Kangaroo River.

In 1882, a large area of 4,000 acres was turned into a reserve, being already popular as a local attraction for visitors. Today, the reserve is part of the Morton National Park.

The visitor centre is within the reserve and have on display information on the flora and fauna of the area, tourist information, picnic area, cafe and toilets. There is coach parking. There is a boardwalk that follows along the creek through native bush to the lookout at the top of the falls. The views are spectacular and you can see down the cliff and out across Kangaroo Valley.
