The lesser known

There are so many cascades like this that generally make for better photo opportunities than the big falls. This one is located below Silver Cascades and before Victoria Falls.

Silver Cascades

These are located a few hundred metres above Victoria Falls and are one of the finest sets of cascades in the Blue Mountains.

Empress Falls

These are located at one end of the National Pass Trail; at the other is the much better known Wentworth Falls.

Horseshoe Falls

When visiting Govetts Leap, not everyone realises that, in addition to the much photographed Bridal Veil Falls, just around the corner a 5 minute walk away is Horseshoe Falls.

Gordon Falls

These attractive falls are one of the lesser known drops in the Blue Mountains. Gordon Falls are situated east of Leura Cascades along the impressive Prince Henry Cliff Walk.
There's a carpark right next to the lookout where this shot was taken so they are an easy fall to get to.

The Grand Canyon

This waterfall, often barely a trickle, is in the Grand Canyon at Blackheath.

Kalang Falls

These falls are over in the Kanangra Walls section of Blue Mountains National Park and are accessed by a ten minute walk from the carpark.

Wentworth Falls

Of course, there are many more famous falls, such as Wentworth Falls pictured here, that the tourists flock to. Bridal Veil, Leura Cascades, Katoomba Falls and Wentworth are the best known.
