Browns Falls Browns Falls is a short 10-15m waterfall that also plunges over a basalt wall (as evident again with lines of basalt columns). Even though the signage suggested it was a 20-minute 600m walk, I thought the hike was much longer than that. In the end, it took us about 75 minutes return to do the whole hike/scramble plus all the photographs (certainly longer than what the sign suggested, but there was a lot of uncertainty and unsure steps slowing us down). I recalled seeing another small group of people at the car park looking for platypus. Apparently, they can be spotted here, but we weren't so fortunate to spot these very shy and endangered organisms. For directions on getting to Killarney, see the Queen Mary Falls page.
