Buckley Falls (Highton)
Buckley Falls is a rock cascade in the Barwon River at Highton. There are three cascades along this part of the river - one upstream at Baums Weir, one at the main Buckleys Falls and another opposite the former paper mill. The falls are only 2m high but they are the only falls in Geelong.
Along Buckley Falls Road, high above the river, there is a lookout / viewing platform and another viewing platform at the falls reached by a set of stairs. Depending on the water level, there are often opportunities for some rock hopping.
There are some car parks near the falls, one with a picnic area. There are no toilets.
Access for Dogs:
Dogs must be on-leash.
