Purling Brook Falls

It was a weekend off and Krish is new to Gold Coast and I thought of taking him to my favourite place in Gold Coast so far, Springbrook. A bit of drizzle was in the forecast but yet we decided to try our luck. After a 50min ride we were at my most favourite spot in Springbrook, Purling Brook falls. Similar to us so many other visitors wanted to try their luck despite the bad weather. 

Purlig Brook has a 4km track which takes you to the bottom of the waterfall which starts at the carpark. Make sure the track is done in a clockwise manner to ensure you wont be climbing too steep. It's not the easiest track nor it is the most difficult. The first stop is a lookout from which you can see the falls from a distance. 

The second lookout has a view of the valley with its mighty gondwanian vegetation and a smaller waterfall falling by. 

Make sure you dont stop and keep walking to the bottom of the falls. It is well worth the visit to the bottom of the falls. It started to rain as we climbed down to the bottom of the falls and luckily we had our ponchos ready. 

By the time we reached the bottom of the falls, rain had stopped and the falls was filled with water, ferocious and ferociously beautiful. This was my third visit to this falls and I am never tired of visiting this falls, it always perks my spirits up.

We stayed there a long time drenching in the drizzle of the waterfall mist, looking at the tallest waterfall in Queensland. 

After spending over a good half an hour dazzled by this falls we climbed up the valley to the top of the falls. It was very interesting how a small calm creek plunges into this valley forming this mighty falls. 

I would most certainly keep visiting this falls again and again.
