Introduction to Elabana Falls

Elabana Falls is a stunning waterfall located in Lamington National Park, part of the Gondwana Rainforests of Australia World Heritage Area. This beautiful cascade is nestled amidst lush rainforest, offering a tranquil escape and a picturesque setting that attracts nature lovers, hikers, and photographers alike. The falls are accessible via a scenic hiking trail that begins at O'Reilly's Rainforest Retreat, making it a popular destination for those visiting the Gold Coast hinterland.

Getting to Elabana Falls

The journey to Elabana Falls begins at O'Reilly's Rainforest Retreat, a well-known eco-tourism resort in Lamington National Park. There are two main trails to reach the falls: the Box Forest Circuit and the Main Border Track. The Box Forest Circuit is a 10.9 km round trip that takes approximately four hours to complete.

Both trails are well-marked and maintained, offering a moderate level of difficulty suitable for most hikers.

Elabana Falls is renowned for its serene beauty and the intricate rock formations that surround the cascading water. Visitors often describe the falls as a hidden gem, with its multi-tiered drops creating a mesmerizing scene. The base of the falls is accessible, allowing visitors to get close and even enjoy a refreshing dip in the natural pools formed by the cascading water. The area around the falls is rich with native flora and fauna, making it a perfect spot for nature photography and wildlife observation.

  • What to Bring: It's advisable to bring water, snacks, sturdy walking shoes, and a camera. Swimsuits and towels are recommended for those wishing to swim.
