This park is located on the southern edge of the caldera of the Mount Warning shield volcano north of Lismore, with Mt Warning being behind Murwillumbah. The walking paths were apparently cut during the great depression!. I had the pleasure of taking my nephew to the base of Minyon Falls via Minyon Grass the end of December. His excellent photos will soon be seen on the link provided. We had already visited Victoria Park, near Alstonville that day. But this was different, and this time there had been recent rain. We both had fun with leeches – but a dash of salt and a reminder to anoint the feet beforehand with good repellent all helped. We came across a lace monitor on the way in who obligingly allowed us to capture him – in our cameras. And at the base of the falls we saw amongst the rocks we were scrambling across a blue crayfish, called the Lamington Plateau Crayfish, which was a challenge to photograph due to the precariousness of the situation. Of course there is the stream below the falls, and the usual falls pic. I came here with some of my kids last summer, and they did the ritual bathe in the pool below the falls, including sitting under the actual fall of 104m of water! I am glad no logs fell over! I might see if I can dig a pic of that up and add it. Found that my 17-35mm and the 105 micro were the most useful.

Enjoy.
