South Lawson Waterfall
Lawson · New South Wales · Australia
The Blue Mountains has a lot of waterfalls. If I had to pick one route that's easy to walk and still gives you a lot to look at, it would be the South Lawson Waterfall Circuit.
After finishing it, what I felt came down to one sentence: a few steps on, and there's another waterfall. The loop isn't long, but it strings together several waterfalls that are completely different from each other. Some are thin streams coming down a rock wall, surrounded by ferns and forest. Some are tucked under the rock face and only appear once you get close. Some spread down in layers, step after step, and some have a pool and a patch of sand at the bottom. You're looking at waterfalls the whole way, but it doesn't feel repetitive.
Local walkers often call this route the Five Waterfall Walk. Besides the main falls, you keep running into small unnamed streams and hidden waterfalls along the creek.
