Nice walk, pretty falls, many stairs (268) but not too hard. Very busy when I went, a constant stream of people. The drive in wasn't too bad either, good picnic spot on the way up.Full review by Taswegian_traveler

Beautiful falls, worth seeing, lots of steps but well built. Close to Lorne, parking is limited so try and go early morning or late afternoon during peak season.Full review by Climber02975118658

Questions & answers

Q:
Can motorhome go to the parking, first time looking... driving RV to all falls in Lorne?
A:
All falls? I don't know, I didn't visit all of the falls. Erskine Falls should be ok, and She-Oak Falls (on the GOR towards Apollo Bay), as long as it's not too busy (the car park is smaller). …

All falls? I don't know, I didn't visit all of the falls. Erskine Falls should be ok, and She-Oak Falls (on the GOR towards Apollo Bay), as long as it's not too busy (the car park is smaller). Hopetoun Falls, which is well within range of Lorne, is likely to be more of a problem. The car park is small and the road is narrow. I wouldn't want to try that in an RV during peak times or weekends. Beauchamp Falls I would assume is similarly difficult but I didn't go there, I just drove past, as it was closed. Same for Triplet Falls, I don't know but I wouldn't be confident.

A:
It is a lot of steps and most people stop on the way up to rest. If you look at the base of the falls from the top viewpoint, then look at the steps and imagine they go all the way down there you will have a sense of whether or not you want to try it. There are no bathrooms anywhere near, and if it has been raining the steps will be slippery. Be careful

Q:
Is there phone reception? I’m thinking of catching a taxi to see the site but wouldn’t know how to get back if I can’t call for a taxi? Alternatively is there any better forms of transport? Thanks!

We did not need to use phones so not sure of reception but doubt they work there so maybe get taxi to wait (expensive) or prebook a pick up time?
