Lady Barron Falls is a small cascading waterfall set further away from the commotion of Russell Falls.
From the car park for the Tall Trees Walk (see directions below), we had to walk a little further up the road to where the walk to the falls began (right across from the top end of the Russell Falls/Tall Trees connection trail). We managed to make a little mistake missing this trailhead and walking further up the unsealed road than what was necessary.
Still, once we got on the correct track, we walked through mostly shaded forest with roughly 5 bridges to cross as well as some minor hills (keep the trail from being totally flat). It took us about one hour return.
If you're not up for the adding more greenhouse gases by driving more than what's necessary, then there's the option of getting to Lady Barron Falls through a connecting track (though it wasn't open during our visit). This was described in the Russell Falls page.
Directions: The easiest access is by driving past the Russell Falls Visitor Center and going up the unsealed Lake Dobson Road towards the car park for the Tall Trees Walk. The Russell Falls page has directions to the Lake Dobson Road turnoff in Mt Field National Park.
