An upgraded viewing platform at the base of Erskine Falls near Lorne gives visitors a spectacular up-close view of the 35-metre waterfall that plunges into the rockpool below, surrounded by lush fern gullies.
Erskine Falls is located on the Country of the Eastern Maar people in the Great Otway National Park and attracts around half a million visitors every year.
Enjoy this spectacular view from a safe, comfortable distance with plenty of space for photos and to take it all in. Improvements to lookouts, walking tracks, and parking ensure a better experience overall when visiting the falls.
For those who enjoy a longer walk, explore the Lemonade Creek track through the ferny gullies and forest. Two deteriorating footbridges along the track have been rebuilt, improving access to this part of the national park.
Winter and spring rains make for a spectacular time to see the falls at their best. For a more peaceful experience, visit mid-week or during the cooler months to avoid crowds.
As always, follow safety advice and check conditions to ensure a safe visit.
