Kalang Falls
 Kalang Falls sits at the bottom of a hanging valley carved by the Kanangra Creek. The waterfall walk that begins to descend down steps with a few small sections of friction pitches from the Kanangra Walls Lookout is roughly 60 minutes return. The falls was not flowing well when we were there despite several consecutive days of rain so I'm not able to tell if this is a very seasonal waterfall with a small drainage or if the drought affected it to the point that even the recent rains couldn't replenish its flow. There is more to this waterfall that what you can see from the official trail. Abseilers who have the gear and the nerves to scale the cliffs can see some of the other waterfall tiers on the Kanangra Creek (I reckon one of these tiers is the actual Kanangra Falls, which we weren't able to see from the official trail - probably because the stream didn't have enough water). Getting here requires a very long out-and-back day tour from the Blue Mountains area passing by the Jenolan Caves. After getting through the caves complex, you have to take the unsealed road towards its end near the Kanangra Walls, which probably is an additional half hour one-way from the caves. Tell us about your experience with this waterfall.
