Cam Falls

Cam Falls is an impressively powerful waterfall on the East Cam River in Tasmania, plunging 20 metres over a vertical basalt cliff. It sits in a small public reserve just below Oonah Road, between the townships of Oonah and Tewkesbury.

A publicly accessible lookout at the top of the falls offers a safe and rewarding view, with a short trail on the eastern side of the river leading to a railing where visitors can look down the full length of the drop and across the gorge toward striking basalt formations.

Reaching the base is a more serious undertaking — the route is steep and trackless, passes through private property requiring landowner permission, and should only be attempted by experienced bushwalkers with appropriate safety gear.
