Belmore Falls - NSW



Getting to Belmore Falls is not easy in the absence of clear signage. It is not too far from the famous (few eateries here) pie shop at Robertson junction is a safe guide. There are two entries, so if you missed one, go by the next lane.

Of all the waterfalls in the vicinity, I think Belmore is the most inaccessible as part of the roads are not paved. When it is dry, the vehicle whips up lots of sand and dust. When it is wet, the road becomes slippery. Whatever the case, you must drive slowly and carefully.

Driving a car through a river crossing is quite an exciting experience. There is some degree of bouyancy and floating sensation.




It looks rather precarious but the base is actually concrete. Slowly does it.

Finally, the well hidden falls emerge after 80 m walk.


 The cascade is amazing but not spectacular if you have seen more magnificent and voluminous falls elsewhere.
