Goomoolahra Falls

Goomoolahra Falls is a cascade waterfall on Mundora Creek within Springbrook National Park in the Gold Coast hinterland of South East Queensland. Its name derives from an Aboriginal word meaning "big waterfall."

The creek cascades over rhyolite cliffs into subtropical rainforest below, and flows year-round, fed by basalt aquifers above before eventually draining into Hinze Dam.

A short, well-formed track from the car park leads to a lookout beside the falls, where panoramic views extend across the World Heritage-listed national park to the Gold Coast, South and North Stradbroke Islands, and on clear days, the sandhills of Moreton Island.

An additional walk continues along the cliff edge, crossing a small creek that provides habitat for the threatened Lamington Spiny Blue Crayfish. The moist conditions at the base of the falls also support habitat for the giant spear lily.
