Horseshoe Falls sits just upstream from Russel Falls, reached by a short uphill track through dense rainforest. The water fans over a curved rock face, giving the falls their distinctive horseshoe shape. There are elevated viewpoints offering a close-up view of the moss-covered rock and surrounding ferns.
