Waterfalls tumble through rainforest, spill over ancient volcanic rock and flow through creeks and gorges across the Atherton Tablelands. Some are only a few steps from the road, while others are waiting at the end of a walking trail.
Follow the Waterfall Circuit near Millaa Millaa, find a cool place for a freshwater swim or head beyond the best-known falls to discover cascades around Kuranda, Ravenshoe, Mareeba and the national parks.
With so many spread across the region, chasing waterfalls can easily become a road trip of its own.
