The best waterfalls in Gold Coast Hinterland

Springbrook has a really nice hiking route.

The Purling Brook Falls Circuit is about 4 km in total, with a difficulty level of 3. If you don’t want to challenge yourself too much, it’s better to walk clockwise, so you get more downhill stairs and mostly gentle uphill slopes. We walked quite slowly and it took about 1.5 hours. This year there has been a lot of rain, so the waterfall looks great, but parts of the track can be muddy.

After visiting the waterfall, there is also Best of All Lookout nearby. After parking, it is about a 300 m walk through the national park. Along the way, you pass some ancient beech trees. The lookout has a very wide view, and it feels very peaceful once you arrive.
