Walking and driving instructions

 

Adelina 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 either go back (15min total walking time), or continue to see 3 more waterfalls (total walking time is about 1.5-2hrs).

Adelina Falls is a permanent waterfall, but best to visit is after decent rain. Ideal time to visit – late autumn, winter, early spring.
