Ellinjaa Falls

Ellinjaa Falls is a ledge waterfall on the Atherton Tableland in North Queensland, about seven kilometres from the village of Millaa Millaa.

Ellinjaa Creek drops approximately 15 metres over a series of basalt lava columns, making it one of the more striking and natural-looking stops along the Theresa Creek Road Waterfall Circuit, which also includes Zillie Falls and Millaa Millaa Falls.

From the carpark, a paved but steep walking track descends roughly 200 metres to the base of the falls. There, a shallow natural pool sits beneath the cascade — shallow enough to stand in, and with a small hidden ledge behind the curtain of water.

The creek and surrounding rainforest are habitat for platypuses and turtles. The falls are generally quieter than others on the circuit, as the short descent deters some visitors.
