Dandongadale River

The Dandongadale River, originating below Cobbler Plateau in Victoria's Alpine National Park, winds through dense forests and rugged terrain, descending 959 meters over its 41-kilometer journey. Notably, it feeds into Lake Cobbler, a serene spot popular for camping, fishing, and hiking. The river's path includes the Dandongadale Falls, the highest waterfall in Victoria, plunging 255 meters over successive cascades. Accessing the river involves navigating gravel tracks, with sections requiring a 4WD or high-clearance vehicle, especially during wet conditions. Visitors can enjoy dispersed camping along the riverbanks, though facilities are limited, and a portable toilet is recommended.
