Boomerang Falls

Highlights

Ever seen a waterfall shaped like a boomerang? Boomerang Falls in New South Wales is a hidden gem for adventure lovers. The trail is steep and rocky, so it’s perfect for kids who love climbing and exploring! Be ready for some challenges as you hike through the Whian Whian State Conservation Area to reach the falls.

Make sure to stay safe and stick to the path—some parts are slippery. Once you get there, the falls are breathtaking, and the sound of the water rushing down is so cool!
