Ellenborough Falls
A single-drop waterfall about 200 metres high, said to be one of the tallest single-drop waterfalls in the Southern Hemisphere, viewed from a lookout or a walking trail at the base.
Ellenborough Falls lies inland near the small town of Ellenborough. Water plunges about 200 metres over the cliff, making it one of the tallest single-drop waterfalls in New South Wales. There is a lookout and a coffee kiosk at the top. A walking track with 641 steps leads down to the base, where you can look up at the whole waterfall. The round trip takes about an hour and is steep in places. Entry is free and the site is open all day. It is about 70 km from Port Macquarie, roughly 1 hour 20 minutes by car via Wauchope, partly on mountain roads, making it a good inland day trip.
