Location and features

The waterfalls are situated about 19 km south of Burnie[5] at an elevation of 187 metres (614 ft) above sea level and descend in the range of 22–38 metres (72–125 ft).[4]

To access the falls from Burnie, take the road towards Cradle Mountain, turn right just outside the boundary of Ridgley, continue down into the gully, and turn left at the posted gate sign. Once entered, the Guide River is to the right. Continue to drive up the gravel road where the falls are located. There are a set of steps which lead down to the bottom of the falls. There are picnic tables and barbecue areas nearby.[6]
