Walking and driving instructions
Junction Falls is roughly a 1hr30 minutes’ drive away from Sydney, or just 3minutes’ from Lawson town centre. From Sydney head west along the M4 which becomes A32 until you reach Lawson (roughly 1h20minutes). Then turn left onto Honour Ave and follow it for 1.1km until you reach 'South Lawson Park' car park. The road is a sealed one. The parking (to your right) is a reasonable size one, but has no facilities other than a map-board with additional information. Alternatively, you can take a train from Sydney to Lawson and walk 1.1km to the track's starting point. From the car park start the Waterfall Loop Walk (anti-clockwise). The track descends to the base of the first waterfall, Adelina Falls, after 7-10 minutes. From here continue to walk along the main trail for 20-25 minutes until you reach the Junction Creek. In fact, there are two waterfalls there - the main one (taller and more powerful), actual Junction Falls, and a smaller one next to a picnic table. You can walk behind the second waterfall. From here either go back (1hr total walking time), or continue to see 2 more waterfalls (total walking time is about 1.5-2hrs). Junction Falls is a permanent waterfall, but best to visit is after decent rain. Ideal time to visit – late autumn, winter, early spring. |
