Purling Brook Falls - Queensland

The Purling Brook Falls (or sometimes Purlingbrook Falls) is a horsetail waterfall on the Purling Brook, and is located in the UNESCO World Heritage–listed Gondwana Rainforests in the South East region of Queensland.

From the Pacific Motorway, Springbrook plateau is 24km from Mudgeeraba or 36km from Nerang. Exit the Pacific Motorway at Mudgeeraba (exit 79 from the north, exit 80 from the south) and follow the Gold Coast–Springbrook Road. Alternatively, exit the Pacific Motorway at Nerang (exit 69) and follow the Nerang–Murwillumbah Road for 23 km then take the Springbrook turn-off at Pine Creek Road. Both bitumen roads are steep, winding and narrow.

Springbrook National Park covers 6725 ha and is in four main sections—Springbrook plateau, Mount Cougal to the south east and Natural Bridge and Numinbah to the west. The plateau has many lookouts with fabulous views while Mount Cougal offers an insight into the area's logging history.

We only went to the viewing platform, due to rain forecast,
which is only 100 meters.
