The most famous features include the Abyss of Cherry, The Minarets, and The Cascade of Cherry. The cliffs are popular among climbers and hikers, as well as those who are fascinated by unusual natural features.

Beautifull canyon. Not too far, 5 km one way. Walking up and down, resting and swimming will take a couple of hours.

Went Wednesday. Go early to nab a good pool before all the teenagers turn up in the afternoon 🤪🤣

Great little walk and what a day for it. Nice little pools and waterfalls to have a dip in to as well. If it’s your first time... make sure you walk a fair way up before deciding you want to jump in. Some much better spots later on

You can trek around the area if you like steep slopes. Incredible views from the top. If you like the outdoors you'll love finding a water hole and diving in cool water. Dries out in the summer though due to the drought.

Beautiful place. Walking up the gorge is breathtaking. Some of the pools are deep enough to swim in, but the water is very cold!
