Cora Lynn Cascades

Cora Lynn Cascades is a series of gentle waterfalls on Cora Lynn Creek, a tributary flowing near Lorne on Victoria's Great Ocean Road.

The cascades tumble over exposed shale ledges and smooth rocks, framed by lush ferns and mosses in a sheltered rainforest gully. Understated rather than dramatic, they offer a peaceful atmosphere distinct from the bigger drops of nearby Erskine Falls.

The standard route begins at the Blanket Leaf Picnic Area on Erskine Falls Road, covering roughly 4. 2 kilometres return.

The trail descends through tall eucalyptus and dense tree ferns to reach the cascades, then climbs steeply back out — allow around two hours.

Multiple tiers are visible from the main path, though some require stream crossings or scrambling on informal tracks to view properly. Dogs are not permitted on the walk.
