Starting from The Cascades car park off Litchfield Park Road, this circuit walk takes you to the Upper Cascades in Litchfield National Park, visiting many waterholes and small waterfalls along the way. This 200-metre lava flow features shallow & clear pools as well as some deeper ones that you can swim in. As you make your way through the humid bushland, you’ll also pass through a vivid Monsoon forest that is quite picturesque. Bring your swimmers and splash around in the welcoming waters of Litchfield. Keep in mind that swimming is not permitted during the wet season. Keep an eye out for crocodiles although there are warnings in places. A hat and grippy shoes are recommended. Let us begin by acknowledging the Kungarakary people, Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
