Josephine Falls


The Josephine Falls is a tiered cascade waterfall on the Josephine Creek located in Wooroonooran, Cairns Region in the Far [North Queensland|Far North] region of Queensland, Australia.

Location and features

The falls are situated at the foot of the southern face of Mount [Bartle Frere] in Wooroonooran National Park. They descend from the Atherton Tableland at an elevation of above sea level in the range of near a popular recreation site as the water flows over a large rock to form a natural waterslide on Josephine Creek, a tributary of the Russell River.
Access to falls is via a sealed road off the Bruce Highway between Babinda and Innisfail. The natural rock slide can be dangerous and the occasional flash flooding occurs without warning, with a sudden increase in the water volume.
