Apsley Falls Apsley Falls is another impressive waterfall in the Oxley Wild Rivers Gorge system not far from Tia Falls. We were able to see that first waterfall from both sides of its watercourse. The first set of overlooks involve going down a bunch of stairs towards a handful of viewing platforms with a direct view of the falls. You can also look at the extent of the gorge by looking almost straight down into the shadowy abyss.
If you were headed the other way from Walcha, go about 19km towards Port Macquarie and the signed turnoff will be to your left. TRIP REPORTSGUIDEBOOKS / OTHER RESOURCESNEARBY WATERFALLSHave You Been To This Waterfall?

Going the other way from the car park, we went on the 2km Oxley Walk, which crosses over a bridge upstream from Apsley Falls before going around the perimeter of the gorge. In addition to seeing the upper falls from different angles than before, the track ends at the lower end of the gorge where you can glimpse the lower main section of Apsley Falls while also looking further downstream into more of the shadowy depths of the steep gorge.
