Trevathan Falls

Nestled in the outskirts of Cooktown, Trevathan Falls is a secluded and picturesque waterfall destination.

Located south of Cooktown, the falls are accessible from the Mulligan Highway via Mt Amos Road. They are often a highlight of 4WD expeditions to the Northern Queensland region.

Trevathan Falls offers a cool and refreshing pool beneath the cascading water, making it a great spot for swimming and relaxation. The surrounding forest provides a serene location for picnics, and photography enthusiasts will appreciate the natural beauty of the falls.

Trevathan Falls is a great spot to visit throughout the year, but it is most magnificent after heavy rainfalls. The rainy season (November to March) offers a memorable experience with fuller falls and lush vegetation.

To access Trevathan Falls, a 4WD vehicle is necessary due to the rugged road leading to the waterfall. The falls are approximately 45 minutes' drive from Cooktown, with clear signage guiding travelers along the route.
