Cedar Creek Falls
A stunning waterfall in the heart of the Gold Coast hinterland.
Overview
An enchanting swimming experience awaits a mere one-hour drive from Brisbane CBD. Park at the Cedar Creek Falls carpark then follow a short track along the gorge lookout all the way to the pools. Greenery and scrub overhang on rocky outcrops, framing the waterfall as it tumbles into the natural swimming pools below. The water is remarkably cool even when the pool catches full sunlight. You can lie on the warm rocks, soaking up the summer heat, then splash into the water for a quick rejuvenation. Rinse and repeat until refreshed. There are picnic tables and barbecues, so bring the esky and some pals and share a magical day of waterfall-bathing.
