Morans Falls
Highlights
Morans Falls in Lamington National Park is the perfect spot for a nature adventure! This beautiful waterfall drops 80 metres into the valley below, and you can see it from a special lookout. Depending on the season, the falls might roar with water after rain or trickle quietly in the drier months—either way, it's an awesome sight!
As you walk the trail through the rainforest, you’ll spot cool plants and maybe even some birds and animals. Take a break and enjoy a picnic at the top of the falls, or continue on the trail to see the volcanic cliffs that have been shaping for millions of years!

What You Need To know
Guidelines
- Always do some research before heading out for your journey. Visit the parks website for up to date information on the current conditions. Ensure to check for any updates relating to any warnings that may be issued for the area, and check for the opening and closing times.
- Always enjoy waterfalls from trails and marked viewing points. Do not climb over barriers as cliff edges and slippery surfaces may cause injury or death.
- Only swim where permitted. Don’t jump from cliff edges into water bodies.
- Swimming near or under waterfalls can be dangerous due to strong currents, submerged hidden rock ledges and other dangers. The force of a waterfall can be incredibly strong and unfortunately, many people have drowned. Follow warning signs and take caution.
- Wear suitable footwear and ensure to bring a hat and sunscreen to protect yourself from the elements.

- Always stay on the marked tracks where possible. Never climb fences, they are there for your own safety.
- Please consider the environment, take your rubbish with you or place in the bins provided. We want to ensure these beautiful places are still here for our future generations to enjoy.
