    Springbrook National Park is a must-visit for nature lovers, offering stunning waterfalls, lush rainforests, and incredible lookouts. Highlights include the Natural Bridge, Purling Brook Falls, and the Best of All Lookout, which truly lives up to its name! The walking trails are well-maintained and filled with wildlife, making it a perfect escape into nature. Highly recommended for a scenic day trip or a peaceful hike!

    Always good place to do a bush walk/hike. After thr recent rains it was so much fun, the water was very refreshing. Parking is a bit of a nightmare at times at Twin Falls as it has become so much more popular but enough parking along the road not far from the track.

    Extremely worthwhile hike and drive! We came here for a camping trip and walked to the two falls. It was a long walk but at the end, it was beautiful! You can walk the track that goes all around the waterfalls, so you can see multiple views of it at different angles. This was very rewarding and quite exciting as we started very far from the falls and then ended up right below them! The walk is mostly a set track, with small rocks and dirt paths. We did see some wildlife, such as birds, lizards and snakes! The track varies from being undercover to completely exposed so make sure you do have the relevant sun protection and you dress in layers! There is a parking lot but it can get busy, so be aware of that too!

    Great hike with moderate difficulty. Breathtaking waterfalls along the way. Absolutely worth the drive and getting wet from the mist. Went on a weekend just after a rainy week.

    In between Nerang in the north and Murwillumbah in the south you’ll find Springbrook National Park. Here you’ll find a magical world dating back to Gwondala a 100 million years ago. Jurassic dinosaurs roamed here once and you can still see Antartic trees. Spectacular views are interspersed with circuit tracks encompassing waterfalls of mouthdropping beauty. We stayed overnight in our campervan at the Settlement which has facilities and private campsites for $7.25 per person (2025). This park is a must visit! XO
