Winifred Falls – a scenic Royal National Park waterfall
Winifred Falls is a relatively easy to reach and picturesque waterfall and swimming hole in the Royal National Park.
Royal National Park is inland from the eastern coastline of Australia, just south of Sydney. It’s the oldest national park in Australis, and the third oldest national park in the world (after Bogd Khan Uul in Mongolia, established in 1783, and Yellowstone in the US, established in 1872). The park is characterised by coastal cliffs, secluded beaches and eucalyptus-rich bushland.
