ERSKINE FALLS HAS INSPIRED THOUSANDS OF BUSH LOVERS OVER THE DECADES.
Erskine Falls is a short drive out of Lorne on appropriately named Erskine Falls Road. It is one of the most popular falls in the Otways and easily accessible.
The 30 metre falls are attractive even when there is little water tumbling into the pool below. It is an easy walk to the first lookout, providing a spectacular view over the falls. The steep climb down steps to the second lookout is more strenuous, but worth it for the view from the beautiful fern gully.
A five-minute walk from the car park brings you to a lookout of the falls, cascading 30 metres into a beautiful tree fern gully. You also can take steps down to the Erskine River to view the falls from below. Straw Falls are a 15m cascade on the Erskine River and are a further 400m downstream. Experienced walkers can follow the river from Erksine Falls to Lorne. The 7.5km one-way walk takes about three hours and passes Straw Falls and Splitter Falls. It should not be attempted when water levels are high.
