Follow the upper section of the popular Pipeline Track to the falls. Since 1861, the pipeline has supplied Hobart with its drinking water. When you reach the Cathedral Rock bend, the track leaves the pipeline and climbs to Wellington Falls. The entire walk is within the drinking water catchment so it’s important to keep to the designated track, leave no waste, and avoid contact with water.

Wellington Falls Tracks 2

This challenging walk meanders through wet forest beside the boulder-strewn North West Bay River. The track then heads away from the river up a steep, zig-zagging, heart-testing climb to the towering dolerite columns of Cathedral Rock. The reward for your effort includes breathtaking views across southern Tasmania. This is the only walk in Kingborough that takes you to such giddy heights.

4 hours return

8.5 km return

Limited parking at start of track.

Narrow bush track, multiple steep climb.

This walk climbs into the sub-alpine area to an altitude of 880 m. Take a raincoat and warm clothes for protection, as the summit is quite exposed. Keep away from cliff edges and closely supervise children. Take care when walking on the large riverbed pebbles.
