Pepina Falls
Pepina Falls
Pepina Falls is a small but scenic waterfall dropping approximately 5 metres on Middle Brook (also referred to as Middlebrook Creek) near Millaa Millaa on Queensland's Atherton Tablelands.
It sits just beneath a road bridge along the Old Palmerston Highway, making it a roadside find rather than a destination requiring a long hike.
Access involves a very short but steep scramble of around 90 metres — more of a rough descent than a formal trail — down a hidden, sometimes overgrown and muddy path to the base of the falls. Parking is limited to just a few vehicles.
A swimming hole sits at the bottom, offering a refreshing dip on humid tropical days despite the water not being particularly clear.
