Set in a scenic forest valley within the Pyrenees National Park, Waterfall Picnic and Camping Area is a spacious campground and day visitor area surrounded by rugged mountain landscapes, native forest and abundant wildlife. The largely shaded setting provides a relaxing base for camping, picnicking and exploring the natural and cultural heritage of the Pyrenees region.

A short walk from the campground leads to the seasonal Avoca Falls, following Number Two Creek through the surrounding forest. The site is also the starting point for both the Valley Walk and the challenging Pyrenees Endurance Walk. Wildflowers, birdlife and expansive mountain views make this a rewarding destination for bushwalkers, campers and nature lovers.

Facilities include toilets, picnic tables, fireplaces and wood-fired barbecues. The campground is suitable for tents, camper trailers and small caravans. Dogs on lead are permitted, including when camping. No bookings or fees apply, and the site is accessible by 2WD vehicles. Water is not reliable at this site, so bring all the water you need for drinking, cooking and washing. There are no rubbish bins, so please take all rubbish home. Campfires are permitted in the fireplaces provided if it is not a Total Fire Ban day.

Waterfall Picnic and Camping Area is in the South West Fire District. Bushfire safety is a personal responsibility.
