5 fantastic Great Ocean Road waterfalls – with photos
Great Ocean Road waterfalls: Erskine Falls
Perhaps the most famous Great Ocean Road waterfall, Erskine Falls is also in Great Otway National Park behind Lorne.
The most fun way to get there is the 7.5km Erskine Falls Track, but this takes a lot of scrambling. It does, however, pass other waterfalls along the way.
Otherwise, the top of this 30 metre waterfall is a short walk from the Erskine Falls car park. If you want to get to the base of the falls, there are 240 steps cut into the gorge.
