Chalahn Falls - Lamington National Park


After Elebana Falls on the Toolona Creek Circuit, the next major waterfall is Chalahn Falls.

But before you reach Chalahn Falls, you pass at least 3 other smaller waterfalls that are worth a photo or 2. Most maps don't give these waterfalls names, but on one very hard to read map, they seem to be Dwandarra Falls, Burraboomba Falls and Gwongurai Falls .

Gwongurai Falls


Very pretty falls, but access is a little bit difficult as the track is overgrown, or non-existent.

Update: Found a good blog post about the Toolona Creek Circuit on the Destination Gold Coast web site which confirmed the name of the first 3 waterfalls.
