Ellenborough Falls, Single-drop waterfall in Bulga Plateau, Australia.
Ellenborough Falls is a horsetail waterfall on the headwaters of the Ellenborough River, dropping about 160 m in a single fall from the edge of the Bulga Plateau near Elands and Comboyne. A viewing platform and walking trails at the site look onto the drop.
This waterfall formed over millions of years through geological processes that shaped the Bulga Plateau and created the deep Ellenborough River gorge. Water erosion gradually carved out the landscape visitors see today.
The falls appear in the 2067 science-fiction film written and directed by Seth Larney, who grew up in the area; in the film the location is labelled Chronicorp. The site sits on the Bulga Plateau near the towns of Elands and Comboyne, in the MidCoast Council area.
The falls sit near Elands and Comboyne on the Bulga Plateau, reached by road in the MidCoast Council area. A viewing platform gives a view of the drop without descending, and walking trails lead from the car park. A kiosk, picnic tables and a barbecue area are at the site.
Water volume shifts dramatically with rainfall patterns, changing how the waterfall looks throughout the year. Heavy rains make it appear more powerful and wider, while dry periods reduce its impact and flow.
