Triplet Falls cascading through dense rainforest in Great Otway National Park.
Triplet Falls is a multi-tiered waterfall in Great Otway National Park, surrounded by dense temperate rainforest. A forest circuit passes through towering mountain ash, tree ferns and remnants of the area's historic timber industry before reaching views of the cascading falls. The combination of flowing water and deeply layered forest makes it a strong location for intimate rainforest photography.

Best Light
Diffuse light balances bright water against the dark rainforest and reveals detail across wet rock, ferns, moss and layered vegetation.
Why This Light
Season
Seasonally Distinct
Winter and spring generally produce stronger water flow, lush vegetation and damp rainforest conditions. Summer can bring lower flows and harsher patches of canopy light, while autumn often combines quieter trails with good forest colour and texture.
Crowds
Usually Quiet
Restrictions
Triplet Falls is reached from a forest parking area within Great Otway National Park. The established circuit descends through rainforest and includes steps, uneven surfaces and a return climb. Wet timber, roots and track surfaces can become slippery after rain, while severe weather can occasionally affect forest-road or trail access.
