Our park ranger is readily available to provide you with valuable information about the park and its facilities. Speaking of facilities, we offer camping options, accommodations, and various venues for weddings and events.

Please refrain from riding your horse throughout the rest of the park.
One of the highlights of McLaren Falls Park is the enchanting waterfall track. Take a leisurely stroll to this picturesque waterfall and witness the mesmerizing glow worms after dusk. We have made sure that part of the track is accessible to wheelchair users and those on mobility scooters.

Reviews of McLaren Falls Park
"It picture perfect in autumn, with the colours of the leaves so vibrant. Cherry Bay is a short walk from Marshalls Animal Park, so it's worth checking out afterwards. Parking is limited, so leave your car there. The park has BBQs for use and lots of kayakers out on the water. There is also a Cafe on site"
"Beautiful nature reserve with magnificent waterfall, big open fields you can camp here as picnic tables, bbqs, showers are available too but check first to see if camping is available when you want to stay, a cafe, park ranger, animal farm, canoeing, beautiful wildlife, big ponds, Frisbee golf, walks to see natural beauty, trees, ducks and geese, abundant bird life and a waterfall and glowworms, plenty of parking and great access usually to drive through. Certainly worth your time to park up and explore the beautiful reserve and just take it all in and smile."
