The Malanda Falls is a cascade waterfall on the North Johnstone River, located in the Far North region of Queensland, Australia.
Location and features
The falls are situated on the Atherton Tableland, near the town of Malanda.
The falls are a very popular swimming spot for residents of the area, and an important historical site. The North Johnstone River is prone to significant flooding in the wet season. There are two 20-minute walks in the surrounding rainforest, with a chance of seeing a tree kangaroo.[3] The visitor centre books guided walks with aboriginal guides. It also has displays on the rainforest, geology and history of Malanda. The visitor centre and museum burnt down in 2010 and was rebuilt in 2013.
