Ingalalla Waterfalls

The Ingalalla Waterfalls, also known as Ingalalla Falls, are located on the Fleurieu Peninsula of South Australia.

Situated in the locality of Hay Flat within the District Council of Yankalilla, the waterfall can be found on an unnamed creek. It is approximately 8.3 kilometers south of Yankalilla and easily accessible from Adelaide, which is 70 kilometers to the north. With a drop of 81-92 meters from an elevation of 253 meters above sea level, the waterfall offers a breathtaking view of the Second Valley below. Since then, it has become a popular tourist attraction.

Aside from admiring the beauty of the waterfall, visitors can embark on a challenging yet scenic bush walk that starts at the waterfall and passes through parts of the Second Valley Forest, near Mount Hayfield. This mountain holds cultural significance for the Aboriginal people as it is associated with the Kaurna Dreaming story of Tjilbruke, a hero in their legends. According to the legend, Tjilbruke created yellow ochre at this site.

The Ingalalla Waterfalls offer visitors an unforgettable experience with its stunning views, picturesque trails, and connections to the Aboriginal culture. It is a must-visit destination for anyone seeking natural beauty and cultural significance.
