Erskine Falls - Victoria

The Erskine falls are located in the Otway Ranges, Victoria.
Erskine Falls are at the end of Erskine Falls Road, 10km north west of Lorne. There is a viewing point above the falls and a walking track, steep in places, leads to the base of the falls.
The falls cascade over one of the highest drops (30 meters) in the Otways into the Erskine river.

The walk is easy, to the base of the falls is approx. 220 meters.

There is a viewing platform 80 meters from the car-park, but the view is quite obstructed:

There is a path to the base of the falls,
down to the Erskine river, 200 meters one way.
It is easy going down but steep going up.

It is a good walk, well constructed.





























Follow the river downstream and you will go to the Straw Falls.


















Back to the car park are a lot of steps back up:
