White Goat Falls Trail Description
From the waste transfer station, you can park anywhere and find the trail. Other trails that are vaguely signed leave from here, so pay particular attention. You will begin the hike by gaining steady elevation for the first kilometre before reaching a junction. The sign will direct you towards the falls along a canyon above the creek. Follow the canyon upstream to reach the falls.
The falls are an incredible natural feature that were created from erosion due to the creek. If you would like to be more adventurous, you can scramble down a slope from the viewpoint to reach the base of the falls. This is a more advanced section and not required to see the falls from a great vantage point.
