The Quarters, Strahan

Hogarth Falls is one of Tasmania’s 60 Great Short Walks. The 60 Great Short Walks offer the best of Tasmania's day walking opportunities. 40-50 minutes return, 2.4 km return. Grade 2. ​​Just a short distance from Strahan ​in Peoples Park, is an easy walk through tall forest and rainforest to a delightful waterfall. As well as towering gum trees, there are beautiful rainforest trees such as leatherwood, sassafras and myrtle. The 1.2km walk soon reaches the falls. These drop over rocks that were once horizontal but have been tilted close to ​the vertical. Platypus can occasionally be seen in the creek below the falls. Return via the same track.
