This trail spurs away from most of the other trails within Lesmurdie Falls, following a section to the north of the brook. It provides a moderately easy ascent on pavers before encountering an uneven surface near the junction with the Valley Loop Trail. Follow the trail for 350m descending past a prominent dolerite dyke of dark rocks and a grove of distinctive quondongs. The shoulder provides a trailside view of the lower face of the falls as well as panoramic views across the coastal plain.
