The falls are situated at the foot of the southern face of Mount Bartle Frere in the
Wooroonooran National Park. They descend from the
Atherton Tableland at an elevation of 192 metres (630 ft) above sea level in the range of 150–300 metres (490–980 ft) near a popular
recreation site where the water flows over a large
rock to form a natural waterslide on Josephine Creek, a tributary of the Russell River.
Access to falls is via a sealed road off the Bruce Highway between
Babinda and
Innisfail. The natural
rock slide can be dangerous and the occasional flash flooding occurs without warning, with a sudden increase in the water volume.[4]
