Ginninderra Creek and the Falls

Periodically, especially with end of Summer and early Autumn rains, the Ginninderra Creek would rise to overflow and rush towards the Ginniderra Falls - a spectacular water drop - which then flowed on into the Murrumbidgee River.

These waterways, with their large waterflows, provided an abundance of local freshwater tortoises, fish, mammals and waterfowl.

The Creek, Falls and Gorge area are now under the protection of the ACT Parks Service,

I've included a short video of the Falls trekking area:
