The Trail
The Silver Falls track is a short and enjoyable stroll for walkers of any ability, shaded by lush eucalypts and ferns for its entirety. Leaving from opposite the Fern Tree Tavern the walk follows the historic Pipeline Track for roughly 1km before diverting uphill at the Fern Tree Bower towards the falls. A short climb later the small but lovely falls are reached. Follow the same route to return.
