MacKenzie Falls
One of the most popular spots in the Grampians and Victoria's largest Waterfall. As the River is Horsham's Water supply, there is always a good flow of water over the falls. There is actually a series of waterfalls, with MacKenzie Falls being the largest. MacKenzie Falls is one of four falls in the MacKenzie River Gorge. If you do the MacKenzie River walk you will also discover Fish Falls. Tilwinda Falls, near Trooper's Creek and below Mt. Difficult, is another nearby falls that is best after rain.
After rain, torrents of water cascade over huge cliffs into a deep pool, sending fine sprays of rainbow mist high into the air above a stunning gorge. It was a bit of challenge to go down the see the falls. There are around 400 steps down to the base of the falls and the natural pool, but coming back up can be quite tough.
Location: Forty minutes drive from Halls Gap on the Mount Victory Road.
