About Cecilia Ravine Waterfall

The Cecilia Ravine Waterfall hike is a "must-do" for anyone looking to escape the city's buzz without needing elite mountaineering skills. This scenic 4.5km–5km loop offers a refreshing mix of lush indigenous forest and panoramic city views, culminating in a mossy, fern-draped waterfall that looks like it belongs in The Lord of the Rings. Generally rated as easy-moderate, making it perfect for families and dog walkers. However, be prepared for a steady incline and plenty of stone stairs that will definitely get your heart rate up. The main attraction is a tranquil, moss-covered wall where water cascades down in delicate rivulets. In the rainy winter months, it becomes a powerful, gushing sight, while in the height of summer, it may dwindle to a mere trickle.
