Explore the Magnetic Termite Mounds
Explore century-old monolithic Magnetic Termite Mounds, a fascinating insight into the natural architecture of these tiny creatures. Learn how the termites construct mammoth mounds that tower over us and make for some pretty great photo opportunities. 

Visit Florence Falls or Tolmer Falls
We then make our way to either Florence Falls or Tolmer Falls, where thundering cascades have carved their paths into steep rocky escarpments. Allow yourself a moment to soak in their awe-inspiring beauty and sheer magnificence. The sandstone plateau of the Tabletop Range sets the stage for these natural wonders, creating cascades that are both picturesque and powerful. Here, you have the opportunity to choose your experience: descend the 160 steps to reach the crystal-clear swimming hole at Florence Falls for an up-close encounter, or revel in the breathtaking view of Tolmer Falls from the strategically positioned lookout above. Either choice promises an unforgettable connection with nature's grandeur.

Visit Buley Rockholes or Wangi Falls
Nestled in scenic bushland, the ancient Buley Rockholes present a multi-level oasis, inviting you to cool off with a swim or relax in the shallow, crystal-clear, cool waters. For those seeking a touch of luxury in the wild, try the full "spa" experience, where the faster-flowing cascades provide a unique Litchfield shoulder massage, blending nature's touch with revitalizing energy.

Alternatively, we may visit the iconic plunge pool at the base of astonishing Wangi Falls. This idyllic swimming hole, set within a backdrop of magnificent natural beauty, promises an invigorating dip that will leave you cooled and refreshed. As you revel in this natural wonder. Whether it's the calm respite of Buley Rockholes or the enchanting allure of Wangi Falls, the experience will enrich your connection with nature and add a special touch to your Litchfield adventure.
