Wangi Falls to Walker Creek – Tabletop Track
4.7
589 reviewsAbout
The Wangi Falls to Walker Creek section is a two-day 18½ kilometre bushwalk that is part of the Tabletop Track. It takes you from the ever-popular Wangi Falls to Walker Creek in Litchfield National Park.
Pause along this section of the track to take in the views of the stunning escarpment country. The landscape's rocky outcrops and ridges provide habitat for local wildlife. There is abundant birdlife to spot - look out for colourful red-winged parrots, double-bar finches, or kingfishers. From the escarpment the path traverses open woodland and crosses creeks lined with pandanus. You can camp overnight at the bush campsite near Tjenya Falls.
Be aware that water can become scarce across the Tabletop Track later in the dry season (August-September). It is recommended to carry sufficient supplies.
The walk is graded as moderate to difficult, so a good level of fitness and preparation is required.
NT Parks Visitor Pass apply within Litchfield National Park. NT Parks Visitor Pass fees (NT residents exempt), and camping and extended walk fees for all visitors, must be booked and paid online before you visit.

The best location to swim in the Litchfield National Park. Water is very clean and the sound of the cascading twin falls is very relaxing. Easy to get into the water because there are steps. Good that it was our last stop so we stayed for the rest of the afternoon. A must visit when in the Litchfield. There is also a Coffee Shop so we were in no rush at all. Most enjoyable of all the locations.

Swim like the locals or take the loop walk! We visited Wangi Falls on a Friday at noon, and it was buzzing with locals enjoying a dip in the pool. The water is cold—perfect for beating the harsh September heat. We did the Wangi Falls loop walk, about 1.6 km. The distance isn’t long, but the ups and downs make it feel longer. Some sections are broad paths, while others are unpaved, but overall it’s manageable. The steps felt man-made, though my husband insists they’re natural. We started on the right side of the loop (the pool is on the left), which made the return mostly downhill—a lot easier than going up! Since it’s a loop, you don’t get a full view of Wangi Falls, but you’ll see some lovely creeks along the way. We went at midday, which made it very hot at the top, so an earlier start might be better. Keep your eyes peeled for wildlife—you’ll spot spiders and some massive fruit bats making a racket in the trees, way bigger than the ones in Singapore! There’s a café nearby, but it was closed when we visited, so bringing your own snacks or lunch is recommended if you plan to spend time in the area.

I’d waited all of August to be able to visit here with my daughter, got the dog in the kennels at Helgas and off we went. It was such a great visit, on a hot early September day. The car park wasn’t at all packed as it was late in the season but still quite a few people swimming and BBQing, having a great time. The walk up and over the falls is nice, a bit steep but gets you warmed up even more so you’re ready for the cool pool and water falls. We swam all the way around the pool to the falls, so lovely. And fenced off from crocs being able to get in, I think it’s checked regularly as well. A must visit

Wangi waterfalls cascade over rugged escarpments into a large, clear plunge pool surrounded by lush monsoon rainforest. Get there early to beat the crowds. It’s very accessible with only a short flat 200m walk from the Car park.

Beautiful, very easy access to get there. Steps into water. At about 5pm, Friday, we were the only ones there. Very beautiful
