Gibraltar Falls

Gibraltar Falls is a waterfall in Namadgi National Park, Australian Capital Territory, dropping roughly 50 meters over a steep rock face. The vertical water flow is clearly visible from a designated viewing platform.

The area shows evidence of early human activity, including tool grinding marks carved into stone that suggest ancient presence. These archaeological finds reveal the long history of people using this land.

The falls sit within Ngunnawal Country, where Indigenous people have maintained long ties to this landscape. The place holds deep meaning for local communities and their continuing relationship with the land.

The site is reached by a short walk from a nearby car park, with free access to the viewing platform. Visitors will find public restrooms and picnic areas with gas barbecues available for a longer stay.

The waterfall maintains steady flow even during dry periods, while other water sources in the region often run low. This reliable water supply makes it a notable natural feature in an otherwise arid landscape.
