Guide Falls

Updated: May 3


The beautiful Guide Falls, Tasmania.

Guide Falls

Guide Falls is a Lovely Waterfall that is very easy to access and is located near Wynyard and Burnie in Tasmania.


The Guide River cascades 25 metres over an impressive basalt rock face, creating Guide Falls.


From the lower car parking and picnic area, it is about a 300-metre walk along the path that runs beside the Guide River to reach the base of the falls.


You can then climb the stairs to view Guide Falls from 2 viewing platforms in the upper area. Alternatively, you can park in the upper area and walk down the stairs to the base of Guide Falls.


This waterfall is awe-inspiring after heavy rainfall in the area.


Directions to Guide Falls


From Burnie to Guide Falls is approximately an 18-kilometre drive.


From Burnie CBD, drive South along Mount Street towards Ridgley, then turn right onto the Ridgley Highway. Continue on this road through the township of Ridgley, then turn right onto West Ridgley Road.


Drive about 2.3 kilometres on West Ridgley Rd until you see the sign for Guide Falls to the left (just before the bridge over the Guide River)


You can then park in the lower carpark and picnic area or continue further up the road to the upper area.
