Mt Victoria Forest Reserve
Mount Victoria can be visited using a link road running through the reserve between Ringarooma and Pyengana.
There are restrictions on this windy, narrow road (5t load limit, no caravans or trailers), where hand-constructed dry stone walls built in the 1920's can still be seen.
The day use area on a high ridge under Mt Victoria features Ralph Falls plummeting over a fluted cliff into the gorge below.
A 10 minute stroll through an old myrtle rainforest leads to the lookout over the falls.
A longer return loop to the carpark through tall melaleuca and mossy banks passes the Cash's Gorge Lookout from which it is an easy walk on duckboard across button grass plain to the carpark.
If travelling on to Pyengana don't forget to visit St Columba Falls.
