This majestic feature is also one of the easiest waterfalls to get to and is only an hour outside of Hobart, making it a great location for a day trip. The camping facilities within the park are equipped with  toilets, electric barbecues, kiosk and a visitor centre near the start of the track.

When my grandfather, JK, and my dad, Roger, started Cub back in 1968, I bet they never imagined it would still be going fifty years later – but here we are 50 years later and stronger than ever.

It was such an honour for me to meet many of those owners at our Jamboree celebration at Del Rio Riverside Resort in Wiseman’s Ferry on the weekend of 19 October 2018.
