Olinda Falls in autumn

The world-famous Olinda Falls are about 50 km east of Melbourne town, in the Dandenong Ranges National Park.

I visited the Falls on Wednesday May 12, 2010, a very cold, wet and bleak day.

The main walking track, about 2 km return, starts at the picnic ground at the Mt Dandenong Rd Tourist Rd, and descends steeply to the Falls.

There are several observation points, with views of the Upper, Middle and Lower Cascades.

On this visit, the Falls were a torrent, due to heavy rain over the past few days.
