Silverband Falls, Waterfall in Grampians National Park, Victoria, Australia
Silverband Falls is a waterfall in Grampians National Park where water flows down a vertical rock face. The water creates a thin, silvery ribbon pattern as it descends, which is how the falls got their name.
Early European explorers named this falls after noticing how the narrow stream of water resembled a silver band cascading down the rock. The name has remained unchanged and reflects their initial impression of this natural feature.
The waterfall represents a natural landmark within the Grampians region, managed by Parks Victoria for environmental conservation and public access.
You can reach the falls by following a short walking trail from the Silverband Falls Car Park on Silverband Road. The path is easy to navigate and suitable for visitors of various fitness levels.
The water disappears into the ground at the base of the falls and resurfaces about 50 meters further downstream. This unusual geological feature shows how water flows beneath the surface in this part of the Grampians.
