Nandroya Falls circuit is part of a network of walks in the Palmerston section of Wooroonooran National Park, an integral part of the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area. Its fertile basalt soils and extremely wet climate support a particularly rich form of rainforest and spectacularly large trees can be seen along the track. At Nandroya Falls, Douglas Creek drops in a narrow, uninterrupted, 50m fall from a basalt parapet. Soon afterwards, the water takes a second tumble, this time shorter but wider. In this damp area, ferns and mosses flourish. The picturesque circuit walk starts from Henrietta Creek camping area. From here it is 2.3 kilometres to the falls by the shortest route. The track soon divides. The branch on the left leads directly to Nandroya Falls, a distance from here of 1.7 kilometres. It winds along the upper valley of Douglas Creek, passing the pretty, 10 metres high Silver Creek Falls on the way. The right-hand branch is a longer 3.5 kilometres route to the falls. Those wishing to do a circuit walk can return by the alternative route.
