Potoroo Falls

Potoroo Falls is a little hidden gem of a waterfall located in Tapin Tops National Park. There is a great swimming hole beneath the falls with crystal clear water. It’s completely surrounded by dense rain forest. The falls are well off the beaten track, and you’ll have to follow a series of logging roads to get there. The day use area is pleasantly located beside Little Run Creek in amongst the forest. Facilities include picnic tables and a toilet.
