Lorne
Saturday 24th August 2019
Our day trip to Lorne started with a stop off to Erskin Falls which is about a 9km drive from Lorne
Erskin Falls Plunges about 30 metres into the Erskin River making it the highest waterfall in the region. It can be viewed from the upper platform which is a 5 minute walk from the car park
or the lower platform which is a steep 240 step walk but well work the effort
You then hit the road where you could go left for upper & lower Kalimna Falls or right to follow the track to Won Wondah & Henderson Falls.
From this point Won wondah Falls are 1km away and Henderson Falls a further 500 meters.
There is no access to the base of Won Wondah Falls and the views are slightly blocked by vegetation but since they are on the way to Henderson Falls we stopped for a quick look.
Soon after we arrived at Henderson Falls & they were amazing, you can walk right up the the falls and feel the water spray on you
Before heading home we stopped in at Lorne for an ice-cream

After lunch we began our walk to Henderson Falls, the walk is clearly signed. We came to a wooden bridge not long after starting
keep following the signs
