Josephine Falls

Josephine Falls, Natural cascade waterfall in Far North Queensland, Australia

Josephine Falls is a tiered cascade on Josephine Creek at the foot of the southern face of Mount Bartle Frere, in Wooroonooran National Park. The water drops from the Atherton Tableland at 192 m above sea level, falling in two sections: a narrow upper chute between dark rock walls, then a broad fan-shaped sheet over a wide, sloped grey rock face streaked with moss. It collects in a churning pool among wet rocks, ringed by dense green forest.

Josephine Falls lies on Josephine Creek, a tributary of the Russell River, at the foot of the southern face of Mount Bartle Frere in Wooroonooran National Park. The creek drops from the Atherton Tableland at an elevation of 192 metres above sea level, and the water flows over a large rock to form a natural waterslide. Access is by a sealed road off the Bruce Highway between Babinda and Innisfail.

The falls sit in Wooroonooran National Park, on the traditional country of the Mamu people, whose name survives in the Mamu Rainforest Canopy Walkway nearby. The natural rock slide on Josephine Creek is a popular recreation spot, and the creek feeds the Russell River below.

Access is via a sealed road off the Bruce Highway between Babinda and Innisfail, at the foot of Mount Bartle Frere's southern face. The natural rock slide can be dangerous, and flash flooding can raise the water volume suddenly without warning.
