The walk to Warren’s Waterfall is on a good quality track through lovely bush. It’s easier if you start from the Bridle Track walk than the other end near the campground. This will avoid the huge uphill steps at the beginning. The turnoff to Warren’s Waterfall is just after the beginning of the walk.
If it’s been raining then the waterfall will have more water, but it’s usually not too bad. You can go for a swim, however, the water is super cold. Note: I would not put my head under the water, it’s not clean, and you can get sick.
At the waterfall’s base, follow the creek down over the rocks until you get to the path again. There are a couple of smaller waterfalls you’ll pass on the way, very pretty.
If you’re looking for a longer walk from Port Fitzroy with great views then the Glenfern Loop Track is awesome or the shorter Old Lady Lookout Track is another great walk.
