Travel Tales: Wentworth Falls #atozchallenge

Location: Wentworth Fall, Australia

The sky was gray and clouds hung heavy as I made my way through the trail shaded by tall tress and dense foliage. Stopping my Fletcher's Lookout, I drank in the view. A sprawling

valley underneath flanked by tall mountains on the sides. Wentworth Falls was almost hidden between various shades of green. Afar, I could even spot  tourists walking across the edge of the waterfall.

That was where I was after few more minutes of walking. I didn't stop there, but kept going on, down the Giant stairway, through the dense foliage, further and further into the valley. The air had cooled down considerably and sky was hardly peeking through the sheltered path. And then suddenly, the trees made way to an open sky and I found myself under a

giant rock. This was, I later found out, Upper Wentworth Falls. It fell down like a curtain, shimmering and swaying. Mini waterfalls flowed down at the down, plunging further down the mountains.

And just like that I was there, staring in amazement at the gorgeous view in front of me. The upper Wentworth Falls waterfall is one of the waterfalls that I came across while doing the National Pass trail. . . #exploreaustralia #pocketfulofmaps #travelblog #waterfall #forest #mountains #waterfalls #beautifuldestinations #naturephotography #bluemountain #natureshots #nature_perfection #naturegram #adventurer #outdoors #fog #nature_brilliance #ourplanetdaily
