Lost Falls should be an impressively tall waterfall, but apparently it has a short season that usually doesn't last into the summer.
Such was the case when we saw this waterfall and Australia (Tassie included) was going through a severe drought during our November 2006 visit. So given the poor timing and luck on our trip, we didn't stand a chance at seeing this guy perform.
Oh well, at least the lookout for the falls is a few paces from the car park so we knew straight away whether it was worth staying or not. I recalled there was another short trail leaving from the car park towards a hill offering a lookout of the ocean, but we didn't do it.
Directions: From Hobart, we went about 145km north on the Tasman Hwy until we reached the Lake Leake Hwy. We then took the Lake Leake Hwy for about 20km until we got to an unsealed road leaving the highway to its south (right across from the turnoff leading to Meetus Falls). There is an informative sign on the north side of this junction worth checking out.
About 6km along the unsealed access road is where the car park for Lost Falls is. Once there, it's a short walk to the viewing deck for the falls.

Going Cuckoo
Whoever penned the last sentence hadn't been there for some time. Signs on the most important intersection aren't apparent which cost me about 10 minutes, and another sign was overgrown with foxglove...[more]
