Leliyn Trail is a dirt path that climbs onto the sandstone escarpment, then circles above Edith Falls before returning to the plunge pool near the car park. This moderately challenging track includes steep rocky sections and passes two lookouts with excellent views of the falls, the Edith River and the surrounding woodland. About halfway around the circuit, the path reaches the upper pool, which is an ideal spot to stop for a swim before completing the loop.

Hiking
Leliyn/ Edith Falls is located within the Nitmiluk National Park (Katherine Gorge). Enjoy swimming in the paperbark and pandanus fringed natural pool at the base of the falls most of the year, or check out the upper pools via this moderate uphill walk.
