Herbert River Falls, Waterfall in Far North Queensland, Australia
Herbert River Falls plunges from a height of 75 meters into the Herbert River Gorge, creating cascades through granite formations at 498 meters elevation.
The falls became internationally known in 2000 when producers constructed a tribal council set for the American television show Survivor at its summit.
The waterfall stands within the traditional lands of Aboriginal peoples who speak Warrgamay and Warungu languages in the Girringun National Park region.
Visitors need a four-wheel-drive vehicle and must pay an entry fee of 50 dollars through Goshen Station to reach the falls.
The waterfall marks the starting point of a 30-kilometer paddling route through grade 3 to 5 rapids, ending at the junction of Blencoe Creek.
