Lal Lal Falls Reserve

Temporary Closure

Please be advised the public toilets and BBQs are currently out of order due to a Powercor fault.

Lal Lal Falls Reserve contains one of the most spectacular waterfalls in the Moorabool area. Lal Lal Falls is one of three waterfalls in the area, with the others being Moorabool Falls and Granite Falls.

The scenic views make this Reserve attractive to visitors seeking a relaxing day out. The Reserve features a large grassed area, playground, picnic tables, toilets, and an undercover shelter with BBW seating and information boards.

Environmentally, the reserve contains significant vegetation including 13 plant species of regional significance and one species rare in Victoria and in Australia. This vegetation provides habitat for a variety of small mammals, reptiles and birds.

Culturally, the Falls are believed to be the earthly home of Bunjil, the All Father or Creator to most Victorian Aboriginal tribes.

The name Lal Lal is thought to be Aboriginal for "dashing of waters". The Lal Lal Falls is listed on the Site Registry of Aboriginal Affairs Victoria as a spiritual place.

You can take a short 200m walk to a viewing platform that looks down over the falls, or go a little further around the gorge on the Von Guerard View Track for a long distance view across the gorge.
