Winter is one of the best times to visit Woolshed Falls, with recent rain bringing the granite cascades to life.

Just a short drive from Beechworth, this iconic spot is putting on a spectacular show, with water rushing through the landscape and scenic lookout spots offering plenty of photo opportunities.

If you're heading out to explore, take care around wet rocks and creek crossings. Wear sturdy shoes, stick to marked tracks and keep a safe distance from the water's edge, as conditions can be slippery after rain.
