Nigretta Falls Nigretta Falls (the visitor centre lady in Hamilton pronounced it "NYE-gret-uh") is pretty much a mandatory stop if you're also visiting Wannon Falls near Hamilton. Some people refer to these falls as a "Little Niagara Falls" but we'll leave it up to you to decide if you get that impression. As you can tell from our photos, we didn't come away with such an impression (see the falls in full flow here). The falls is essentially right off the car park so there's hardly any walking necessary to view the falls from the overlook, but there is a developed path towards its base if you'd like to swim or just see the falls from down there. Alternatively from Hamilton, we could've gone straight to this falls by taking the Gleneg Hwy to the Nigretta Rd turnoff. Then follow this road to the Wannon-Nigretta Fall Rd on the left and take that road to the mentioned turnoff above.
