Somersby Falls
Brisbane Water National Park
A great place to picnic on the Central Coast, Somersby Falls offers barbecues and picnic tables with lush rainforest surroundings, complete with waterfalls and a short, scenic walking track. This is a popular spot for swimming in the shallow pools in summer, or catching the cascades in full flow following a few days of rain.
Try the Somersby Falls walking track - an 800m return walk through rainforest that takes in views of the top and bottom waterfalls. The walk is steep and slippery in places, so keep an eye on the kids as they walk along the track.
The new and improved Somersby Falls Visitor Precinct offers an accessible experience including dedicated accessible parking spaces, improved accessible visitor amenities and accessible access across the precinct, including the new accessible viewing platform at the falls.
*Visitor tip: Somersby Falls is for everyone to enjoy, but this site can prove very popular, especially during summertime and school holidays! Ensure you have a backup plan in case you arrive at a busy time. We suggest visiting nearby Girrakool Picnic Area and Piles Creek Loop, which is just 5 minutes drive down the road in Somersby and has its own picnic area, diverse walking track, swing bridge, stepping stones, lookouts and waterfall.
7am to 8pm (daylight savings time); or 7am to 6pm at all other times.
