Heritage Falls is the tallest waterfall on the Douglas River, dropping 15 metres into a wide, clear green pool set deep within a eucalypt-clad gorge in Douglas-Apsley National Park on Tasmania's East Coast.

The falls are considered the finest of several waterfalls in the area and are most spectacular after rain. Reaching Heritage Falls is a serious undertaking.

Flood damage to the access road washed out two bridges, making the Leeaberra Track trailhead reachable only by capable 4WD or a walk of up to 3. 5 hours one way.

From the trailhead, the route passes through dry sclerophyll forest along an old 4WD track before the terrain becomes rougher and less defined. The return hike to the falls takes at least six to seven hours.

The descent to the pool at the base involves a steep, unstable rocky scramble. The hike is graded 5 and suited to very experienced bushwalkers only; those camping overnight must be fully self-sufficient.
