Barramunga - Stevensons Falls
A 6km drive along a gravel road from Barramunga is Stevensons Falls. There is a picturesque walking track to get to the falls which shadows the Gellibrand River before arriving at an elevated viewing platform.
Two walking options are available with clear signage. The short walk option (500m with easy grade) is available from the day picnic area which is located over the second bridge (to the left of the first bridge). This trail is suitable for all ages and allows you to fully experience the beauty of the Gellibrand River and the falls.
The longer 4.6 km walk travels alongside the road in some sections, Unfortunately some of the surrounding forest area has been replaced with timber plantations.
The source of the falls is the large Gellibrand River and the falls are likely to be flowing at all times of the year.
There are tables, toilets and camping facilities.
Directions - From the Geelong ring road to the Colac exit. Head out to towards Colac and take the Cape Otway Road. Turn left onto the Birregurra-Forrest road, then continue onto Forrest - Apollo Bay Road. Turn right onto Upper Gelibrand Road then continue onto Roadknight-Barramunga Rd / Roadknight Creek Road.
