Triplet Falls, Waterfall in Great Otway National Park, Australia.
Triplet Falls comprises three separate cascades that flow through ancient forests filled with tall mountain ash and myrtle beech trees. The falls sit deep in a dense wooded area in southeastern Victoria and are reached by following a walking trail.
The site was shaped by timber logging in the early 1900s, with old carts and equipment scattered along the path as reminders of this era. These remnants tell the story of when people actively harvested trees from these forests.
The waterfall sits within lands that hold deep meaning for Aboriginal people who have long lived in connection with these forests. Visitors walking through the area can sense this ancient bond between people and the natural world.
The round-trip walk is about one hour and covers two kilometers through the forest. An elevated viewing platform at the falls gives good views of all three cascades and keeps feet safely away from wet, slippery rocks.
Water flow varies greatly depending on rainfall, so in dry periods only one or two of the three cascades may be running. This means each visit can look quite different based on how much water is moving down the falls.
