About Cedar Creek Falls (Tamborine Mountain)
Cedar Creek Falls is a seasonal waterfall in the Cedar Creek section of Tamborine National Park on Tamborine Mountain in the Scenic Rim, Queensland. Fed by Cedar Creek, it cascades over basalt columns into a large rock pool surrounded by eucalypt forest and rainforest. Notable for its accessible walking track, lookout platform and swimming hole, it is most impressive after rain and is one of the most visited natural attractions on Tamborine Mountain.
Visitors guide
Visitors can expect a short rainforest and eucalypt forest walk from the car park to a lookout platform overlooking a basalt-column waterfall and a large natural rock pool below. The track includes steps and rock surfaces leading to the base of the falls where swimming is possible when water levels and conditions permit. The setting is natural and bushland with picnic area, toilets and information signage near the car park.
