Dangars Falls

Dangars Falls is a striking 120-metre waterfall located in Dangars Gorge, approximately 21 kilometres south-east of Armidale, New South Wales, within Oxley Wild Rivers National Park.

The falls cascade into the gorge of Salisbury Waters, a creek with a relatively restricted catchment that rarely floods even after heavy rain. The gorge is particularly spectacular after rainfall, when the falls are at their most impressive.

A short walking track from the Dangars Falls picnic area leads to a viewing platform positioned directly over the cascades, with additional lookouts offering sweeping views of the surrounding gorge country, including the Pinnacles rock formations.

The gorge shelters old-growth Gondwana Rainforest and supports a microclimate along its rims where threatened plant species survive. Wildlife in the area includes endangered brush-tailed rock wallabies and a diverse range of bird species.

Longer trails, including the Salisbury Waters track, extend deeper into the gorge for more experienced walkers.
