The 2km pink trail is a gentle streamlined walk to a waterfall adorned with tree ferns.
The 4 km yellow trail is up the mountainside to another magnificent waterfall.
The 6km orange trail plunges into a gorge, be prepared for a series of boulder hopping, the breath-taking waterfall at the end is worth it.
