Tchupala Falls
Tchupala Falls
Tchupala Falls is a segmented waterfall on Henrietta Creek, situated in the Palmerston section of Wooroonooran National Park in Far North Queensland, approximately 20 kilometres west of Innisfail.
The falls lie within the UNESCO World Heritage–listed Wet Tropics and descend from the Atherton Tableland, dropping roughly 15 metres over a basalt barricade — a jumble of huge boulders — that splits the fast-flowing creek into three distinct cascades.
The falls are reached via a short, easy-to-moderate bushwalking track accessed from the Palmerston Highway, with a return distance of about 1. 1 kilometres from the highway parking bay.
The track approaches from upstream, and the sound of the falls carries through the rainforest before the water comes into view. Tchupala Falls shares its access trail with Wallicher Falls, making it possible to visit both on the same walk.
It sees relatively few visitors compared to other waterfalls in the region.
