Hi! Let me help you plan your Great Ocean Road trip

Phantom Falls

The fairytale forest deep in the Otways.

Phantom Falls

Take in the magic of Phantom Falls, where a 15-metre rock face frames a stunning waterfall set amidst lush Australian bushland.

Discover Phantom Falls

Venture into the heart of the Otways and discover Phantom Falls, a cascading beauty near Lorne. This scenic spot is a reward for those willing to tread off the beaten path.

The trail to Phantom Falls winds through lush eucalypt forest and along the banks of a winding creek – a natural soundtrack of the Otways. 

Getting to Phantom Falls

Phantom Falls is tucked away in the heart of the Great Otway National Park, just a short drive from the coastal town of Lorne. Approximately 140 kilometres from Melbourne, it’s around a two-hour drive along scenic roads winding through both ocean views and lush forest. From Lorne’s town centre, it’s a quick 10-minute drive to the Allenvale Mill Carpark, the starting point of the Phantom Falls trail.
