Waratah Falls

Waratah Falls with part of the town of Waratah in the background


Waratah Falls is a gorgeous wishbone-shaped waterfall tumbling within the mining town of Waratah. The attraction is roadside and you may (like us) see wildflowers blooming around the area. There is even a gazeebo here to allow you to have a pleasant and shaded picnic while seeing the falls.

We were most pleasantly surprised to see the volume of this waterfall considering the drier-than-normal conditions afflicting much of the rest of the northern parts of Tasmania. But I suspect the healthy flow of the falls has to do with a little bit of flow regulation thanks to a water wheel mill upstream as well as a lake, which must be man made.
