The local birdlife and gently flowing waters create a natural soundtrack for the journey through the pristine bush, past a series of trickling falls and over incredible natural rock formations.
As the multi-tiered falls along Frenchs Creek are seasonal, they are best visited in winter rather than the dry summer months, especially after a bout of rain when the stream is full and flowing.
