Detention Falls

 

Although not part of Rocky Cape National Park, they are a short drive from the eastern end of the park.  9 kilometres south of Sisters Creek through the rich green pastures of the North West are the superb Detention Falls.  Turn lefe towards Meuna then right at Hawleys Road. Only a short 10 minute walk takes you to a well constructed viewing platform.  The track has recently been upgraded making in one of Tasmania's great short walks.  The adventurous can venture down to the valley floor. The tannin in the water gives the water a pink hue.

 

NOTE: As a result of an engineers report the viewing platform at the falls has been closed along with the track to the falls.
