Upper Wentworth Falls is the first major section of the waterfall system, where Jamison Creek spills over broad sandstone shelves before plunging deeper into the Jamison Valley below. From the top of the falls, you get a mix of calm creek pools, exposed cliff edges, and sweeping valley views all in one spot, with the sound of rushing water carrying through the surrounding bushland after rain. The upper cascades are reached via the Wentworth Falls Track, which descends from the picnic area through a series of steep steps and lookouts.
