This waterfall may… or may not… have an official name. It was called Little Terrace Falls in a book published by Keith Painter which details the bushwalks in the area, and the name seems to have stuck. Downstream of the larger Terrace Falls on Terrace Falls Creek, it’s still a very picturesque waterfall which drops into a shallow pool. It’s best visited after some decent rain.
The waterfall is right next to the bushwalking track between Terrace Falls and Bedford Pool; the track crosses the creek just below the Little Terrace Falls.
Getting to Little Terrace Falls
Little Terrace Falls is about 3km return from the end of Terrace Falls Road; the bushwalking track descends steeply at the end and requires a bit of scrambling to get to Victor Falls, before continuing to Terrace Falls. The waterfall is also part of a 5km Terrace Falls Loop which takes in four picturesque waterfalls and a couple of swimming holes. It’s best done after some decent rain. The start of the walk is 1.6km from Hazelbrook railway station, which is 18km (18min drive) from Katoomba or 88km (1:10min) west of Sydney.
