Murray Falls, Cascade waterfall in Girramay National Park, Far North Queensland, Australia.
Murray Falls flows over granite boulders, creating multiple cascades that drop into rock pools surrounded by tropical rainforest vegetation.
The waterfall and river received their names from John Murray, a British colonial Native Police officer who served in nineteenth-century Queensland.
The Girramay Aboriginal people maintain strong connections to this land, sharing traditional stories about the Seven Sisters bringing snakes to the area.
The site includes a 300-meter River boardwalk to viewing platforms, plus a 1.8-kilometer Yalgay Ginja Bulumi walking track through the rainforest.
Visitors can observe Ulysses butterflies near the weeping bottlebrush plants while spangled drongos and kookaburras frequent the surrounding forest.
