Steavenson Falls

Steavenson Falls features five cascading water drops on the Steavenson River, reaching a total height of 122 meters through dense forest terrain.

The falls received their name from John Steavenson, who discovered them in 1862 while mapping a road path to the Woods Point gold fields.

The reserve spans 190 hectares of protected land, managed by both government authorities and local community volunteers to preserve natural heritage.

Visitors can access the falls through several walking tracks of varying difficulty levels, with floodlights illuminating the cascades during evening hours.

A hydroelectric turbine at the base of the falls generates power for the lighting system while providing water supply to Marysville through a weir.
