Mumbulla Falls (or Mumbulla Creek Falls) is located in the Biamanga Cultural Area, which is part of the Biamanga National Park on the NSW south coast. A very short paved track and boardwalk leads to a look-out with great views over the falls and the gorge. There’s a number of interpretive signs about the local Aboriginal heritage along the track.

The Aboriginal custodians request that visitors don’t swim in the Mumbulla Falls area, as the site is sacred to the Yuin People; when we visited there were many people in the water and jumping off the falls.

At the start of the trail, there’s a picnic area and BBQs by the Mumbulla River.

Getting to Mumbulla Falls
