Reviews of Garawarra State Conservation Area
"This is a really peaceful place to walk around. The waterfall really kicks off the walk. There are plenty of flowering plants to see."
"Short simple loop through the old train tunnel is nice for a quick outing, you can make it longer if you take a different turn, certainly worth a look of you're in the area"
"Beautiful waterfall, can get to the bottom though not for the feinthearted. Do not take the Kelly's falls walking track as it will get you no where (after some distance it ends with warnings not to proceed)"
"Abit of a trek (or should I say climb down to get to the waterfall). But once your there it is rather nice. Just watch your step as it can be slippery in places. The day we went, unfortunately there was alot of sediment, but we still jumped in. A little sad as it's starting to get really popular with big groups of ppl coming in ."
"Great for bushwalking with scenic waterfall. You will hear the sound of running water. Feeling fresh and having energy for waking. You will the scenic lookout waterfall. Free parking. Peaceful area. You have 2 ways for walking trail, Kelly’s fall walking track - return 45 mins about 1 hours returning and Princess Marina walking track - one way. You can climb down for Kelly’s pool. You need to prepare to get down."
