Avoca Waterfalls

Waterfall Track,
Percydale VIC 3467

Get directions

Take a scenic stroll alongside a stony creek to the gorgeous Avoca Falls, a seasonal waterfall which is nestled in a valley within the Pyrenees State Forest.

Accessed via an easy 500 metre walk from the nearby Waterfalls Campground, Avoca Falls is a great place to explore. This waterfall typically only flows after heavy rains, but is a beautiful spot to visit with or without water.

From the base of the waterfall, you can clamber up either side to reach several more levels in the rocks above.

Take care if climbing up, as the grass and rocks can be very slippery. The walking track is narrow and uneven in places, travelling upstream along Number Two Creek. This creek is seasonal, but the walk is scenic with or without water flowing. Follow the track right to the base of the Avoca Waterfall.

Acknowledgement of Country

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities. These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.

We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years. As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.
