Federal Falls are located on a short side track near the junction of Cataract Creek and Lawson Creek, instead of heading up the steps, you continue on for a few minutes and arrive at these lovely falls. Originally named Hays Falls, they were renamed to commemorate the Federation of Australia in 1901.
Easy to get to for all ages as are all the falls on this walking circuit. A wonderful set of falls and very similar to Adelina Falls in style and height. Lots of great angles for taking photos and a shallow pool at the base with a sandy bottom.
So peaceful to sit here in the shade and just listen to the water cascading, but beware, mossies can be out in force at certain times of the year.
