  1. Crystal Shower Falls, Dorrigo National Park

  1. Ebor Falls, Guy Fawkes River National Park

Watching the waters of Guy Fawkes River drop 100m into a spectacular gorge is gripping. This superb two-tiered waterfall is a photographer’s dream: take in the outrageous beauty from three designated lookout platforms, which deliver contrasting views of the falls and rugged surrounds. Ebor Falls is located near Armidale.

 

  1. Wollomombi Falls, Oxley Wild Rivers National Park
