Itinerary description

Creek hop to the base of Bulls falls. Some steep tricky sections of bush bashing through lantana, wait a while vines, the odd Gympie Gympie plant and other sharp spiky nasty plants along the way.

Quite a few waterfalls and cascades along the creek option we took. Lots of recent rain had the creek running and the water cloudy and cold.

Can be a bit tricky getting to the base of the falls. You can try and climb up through the gap but the rocks are slippery and the hand and foot holds aren't very big. You can follow the cliff line down and then fight through the lantana to the base. This could be the better way down. We followed the cliff line back up to the lookout and then the road back to the starting point. You could just go from the lookout down to the bottom but you will miss out on the many small waterfalls and cascades as you come up the creek.
