History and features
The waterfall is named after the unique shape of the water falling from the clifftop to the base. The waterfall was discovered by George James Kennedy (1887-1958), who lived at "Sunnyside", near Cape Patten. It was first photographed on Saturday 27th March 1909 by Messrs McMahon, who were the first tourists to visit the falls.[1][2]
The waterfall is extremely difficult to access, and requires experience traversing thick bushland and steep terrain.[1]
