Davies Creek Falls, Waterfall in Far North Queensland, Australia

Davies Creek Falls is a waterfall in Far North Queensland where water plunges over granite rock faces in a series of distinct drops reaching over 100 meters in total height. The cascade creates multiple sections as it descends, with the main drop stretching about 75 meters.

Davies Creek Falls lies within Davies Creek National Park, southwest of Cairns in Far North Queensland. The falls drop about 100 metres in two stages, the longer plunge falling roughly 75–76 metres from the Atherton Tableland into the valley below. The creek and its cascades are named on the Atherton Tableland side of the range, and the two-step profile is the feature that defines the site.

The falls lie within Davies Creek National Park, in the traditional country of the Djabugay people, whose name for the creek is Dabilbil. The surrounding Atherton Tableland and its creeks are part of a landscape the Djabugay have used and travelled for generations.

You can reach the falls with a short drive along Davies Creek Road from Kennedy Highway, with parking available at the starting point. Wear sturdy shoes for walking and bring water, especially on warm days, to make the visit more comfortable.

The two drops are unequal: the upper fall alone accounts for 75–76 metres of the 100-metre total, dropping from the Atherton Tableland into the valley. The lower drop makes up the remaining height, and the cascade is about 6 metres wide.
