Hogarth Falls
A rainforest waterfall walk through Strahan's People's Park, about 50 minutes return, following a creek through ancient rainforest with a chance of spotting platypus.
The Hogarth Falls walk begins at People's Park on the eastern side of Strahan and follows Botanical Creek through dense temperate rainforest. It is about 2.5 kilometers one way, with gentle gradients, and takes roughly 50-60 minutes return. Along the way you will see giant tree ferns, moss and eucalyptus, and at dawn or dusk you may occasionally spot platypus in the creek. The end point is a small waterfall, at its fullest after rain. Admission is free, and it is a relaxed stroll for the day you arrive or before or after a boat cruise.
