MacKenzie Falls (Mikunung Wira)
MacKenzie Falls
The most spectacular permanent waterfall in the Grampians. Steep stone steps take you down to the pool, where you can feel the mist up close.
The wide curtain of water pours from basalt cliffs into a deep pool. It is one of the waterfalls in the park that flows all year round. There are two routes from the car park. The gentle path to the clifftop viewing platform takes about 10 minutes. To reach the foot of the falls, you must descend about 260 steep steps, a round trip of about one hour, which is physically demanding. You can also walk along the river for about 2 hours from the Zumsteins picnic area. Swimming in the pool is prohibited, and the steps become slippery after rain.
