WESTMORELAND FALLS TRACK DESTROYED

The Great Western Tiers

NOTE: The Westmoreland Falls track was washed away after 30cm of rain fell on the slopes of The Great Western Tiers in a few hours on 14th January 2011.

A Parks and Wildlife representative at Mole Creek advised that the track along the stream has been completely destroyed from about 150 metres below the main falls.

 

After visiting the area at the time it was clear that the original track cannot be rebuilt. The damage is so extensive. The falls and cascades shown on the previous page are still there - but are now accessible via a new track.
