Newell Falls, Roadside waterfall in Dorrigo Mountains, Australia
Water cascades down a cliff face beside a single-lane bridge before flowing into the Bellinger River at the valley bottom.
The waterfall received its name from Hugh Newell, who served as New South Wales Commissioner for Main Roads from 1932 until 1941.
The waterfall forms part of the Waterfall Way, connecting numerous natural water features across the New England region of New South Wales.
A rest area with picnic tables and shelter sheds allows visitors to take a break while viewing the falls from 50 meters away.
During periods of heavy rainfall, the roadway near the falls transforms into a water torrent, requiring authorities to close the route.
