Personally, I wonder why they didn't make a track going to the base of this waterfall. Perhaps the forested base was too ecologically sensitive? Or it was too difficult to reach the bottom from the top?

Adding to the disappointment, there was another nearby waterfall here called Kondalilla Falls, which drops 80m. Unfortunately, during our May 2008 visit, the trail access to the best view of this waterfall was being worked on so we weren't able to even visit that waterfall.

From Brisbane we headed north on Bruce Hwy for a little over an hour then turned left onto Bli Bli Rd, which eventually became Mapleton Rd (the switch happens as we left Nambour). About 13km from Bruce Hwy, Mapleton Rd junctions with Obi Obi Rd. We went onto that small road and took it until we saw the Mapleton Falls sign where we then turned right onto its spur road. We took that spur road to its end where there was the car park.
