 Description of Tolmer Falls

These lovely falls cascade over beautiful massive red cliffs and into a large, deep pool below. There is a lookout that is 400m from the carpark, gives a superb view of the narrow gorge and the falls that flow into it. There are two species of bats that live in the caves within the gorge and they are called the Orange Horseshoe bat and the Ghost bat. Everyone needs to stay on the walking track and aviod the gorge area to help protect these bats.
