A previous reviewer said it was relatively easy ... I’d say it does require a moderate fitness level as you need to cross the creek on fallen logs and clamber up some steep inclines. Nonetheless the effort is worth it. It’s a beautiful little water fall in a perfect setting in a fern filled sandstone gorge. We were enchanted! Just make sure you wear footwear that can get wet and has something grip.

Having read the reviews online we were prepared for a much tougher drive in than we experienced. The dirt road had been graded recently and was no more or less rough than dirt roads generally are. The greater risk for us was large 4WD vehicles driving too fast around bends towards us. We arrived at the park late in the afternoon (5:30pm) on a hot day which meant we could park right next to the start of the walk and it was cooler. The drive in from Lithgow passes through beautiful, boulder strewn country. The walk to the glow worm tunnel is stunning. To see the worms, you need to be quiet - loud noises disturb them and they won’t glow. This escaped at least one group walking the tunnel at the same time as us. Take a good torch (or two) as the tunnel floor is uneven and wet, walk in till the light from the tunnel entrance has dimmed, turn off your lights and let your eyes adjust. The worms are denser at some points so try a few places as you walk in.

Bloody awesome spot !!! Some of the most picturesque countryside and some fantastic tracks from mild to needing a change of underwear wild !!! Top spot to camp and if you enjoy a water crossing, this place has plenty including one great one that continues upstream some 60 metres or so, this one is so long you forget your driving a car and start thinking you're in a boat LOL. Top spot and one we've driven many times including taking friends out there who found it equally as stunning. For all those wanitng to visit the area, just remember - whatever you take in, you take back out !! NO leaving your rubbish behind PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE
