Located in Mt Field National Park, the Russell Falls is a tiered–cascade waterfall on the Russell Falls Creek, within the Central Highlands region of Tasmania & 100m downstream of the Horseshoe Falls, approximately 70km northwest of Hobart via the Brooker and Lyell highways. The easy walk will take you through a mixed forest comprising of towering swamp gums, the tallest flowering plant on Earth, and species typical of wet forests and cool temperate rainforests, such as dogwood, musk and myrtle.
There are toilets, electric barbecues, kiosk and Visitors Centre near start of track. Park entry fees apply.
The falls are very popular with visitors and can be reached by a very easy track that may suit some wheelchair users and those with strollers.
You can return from the falls via the same track or follow the creek back by crossing the bridge below the falls.
