Kanalla Falls, waterfall in Flinders Ranges, South Australia
Kanalla Falls is a waterfall in the Flinders Ranges of South Australia, fed by Edeowie Creek flowing down from the surrounding mountains. The water drops approximately 64 to 79 meters over rocky steps, creating a series of small cascades that vary in intensity depending on rainfall and seasonal conditions.
The Flinders Ranges have been shaped by natural forces over millions of years, with rock formations telling the story of Earth's ancient history. Aboriginal communities long inhabited this land, using the water and plants as part of their daily life and cultural traditions.
Wear sturdy shoes and bring plenty of water and sun protection, as open areas can become very sunny during the day. There are no shops or facilities near the waterfall, so plan ahead and bring all supplies you may need for your visit.
After rainfall, the water flow increases dramatically and creates visible pools at the base where visitors can dip their hands into the cool water. The best time to visit is early morning or late afternoon when the light is softest and the air feels coolest.
