While Apollo Bay is famous for the pristine beaches and laid-back charm, 17.5 kilometers east of Apollo Bay is the hidden gem of Carisbrook Falls, offering a new perspective of cascading waterfalls. Finding the trail is easy with a well-signposted car park and then a moderate 1 kilometre uphill walk leading towards the viewpoint.

​While not being the tallest waterfall in the area, beauty is to be found in the tiers and lush rainforest setting. Take a moment at the viewpoint to appreciate the sight and sound of water crashing through moss-covered rocks into a refreshing pool. Beyond the water, towering tree ferns, unique birdlife flitting through the branches, and the earthy scent of the forest floor brings the area to life.

Other waterfalls worth visiting in Apollo Bay include Beauchamp Falls, Triplet Falls, and Hopetoun Falls.

​Your escape from the hustle and bustle of Apollo Bay is a chance to connect with nature. Pack a picnic lunch, wear comfortable shoes, and get ready for a refreshing day trip to Carisbrook Falls!
