澳大利亞最壯觀的6個瀑布
One of the most exciting things about traveling to Australia is swimming in the waterfalls. The sun and heat in Australia can really be exhausting and as beaches are far away, water becomes precious. However, the inland areas of the country are blessed with waterfalls and water holes, often found in places you never expected. Here are the most breathtaking waterfalls in Australia.
去澳大利亞旅行最令人興奮的事情之一就是在瀑布中游泳。澳大利亞的陽光和酷熱會讓人筋疲力盡,而海灘又離我們很遠,水就變得很珍貴。然而,幸運的是,這個國家的內(nèi)陸地區(qū)有瀑布和水域,經(jīng)常在你意想不到的地方被發(fā)現(xiàn)。以下是澳大利亞最驚險的瀑布。
Barron Falls
巴倫瀑布
The most popular attraction of the Cairns area is the steep waterfalls on the Barron River. There are a number of places where visitors can take pictures of the waterfalls, but the best viewing spot is on Skyrail - a 7.5 km cable car over the rainforest.
凱恩斯地區(qū)最受歡迎的景點是巴倫河上的陡峭瀑布。游客可以在很多地方拍攝瀑布的照片,但最好的觀賞地點是Skyrail——一輛7.5公里長的熱帶雨林纜車。
Another way to see the falls is by the Kuranda Scenic Railway - one of the major attractions in Cairns. The tourist rail goes up to the Macalister Range before reaching the Kuranda Forest, and there are plenty of stunning views along the way, including the Barron Falls. While you probably won't be able to swim in the Barron Falls, the nearby Old Weird Falls in Stoney Creek is where you can enjoy the cool water.
另一種欣賞瀑布的方式是通過庫蘭達風(fēng)景鐵路——凱恩斯的主要景點之一。在到達庫蘭達森林之前,游客乘坐鐵路到達馬卡利斯特山脈,沿途有許多令人驚嘆的景色,包括巴倫瀑布。雖然你可能無法在巴倫瀑布游泳,但你可以在附近的斯托尼溪Old Weird瀑布享受清涼的水。
Millaa Millaa Falls
米拉米拉瀑布
Another waterfall in Cairns that is definitely worth a visit is the Millaa Millaa Falls. The falls may not be as spectacular as Barron Falls, but you can enjoy crystal the clear water for hours. The calm space and lovely facilities make this swimmable waterfall one of the best around Cairns.
凱恩斯另一個絕對值得一游的瀑布是米拉米拉瀑布。瀑布可能沒有巴倫瀑布那么壯觀,但你可以享受幾個小時水晶般清澈的水。寧靜的空間和可愛的設(shè)施使這個可游泳的瀑布成為凱恩斯周圍最好的瀑布之一。

Wallaman Falls
瓦拉曼瀑布
One of the most visited waterfalls in Australia is the Wallaman Falls, recognized by UNESCO. It is tucked away in a beautiful granite reserve near Ingham, among the forests of Girringun National Park. Wallaman Falls is an ideal day trip from Townsville (a 2-hour drive).
澳大利亞游客最多的瀑布之一是被聯(lián)合國教科文組織認可的瓦拉曼瀑布。它隱藏在英格漢姆附近一個美麗的花崗巖保護區(qū),在吉林根國家公園的森林中。從湯斯維爾(2小時車程)到Wallaman Falls是理想的一日游。
Wallaman is famous for its 268-meter high main waterfall and a 20-meter deep pool at the bottom - Australia's tallest single-drop waterfall. You can certainly swim in its bottom pool, but you’ll have to take a 2km steep hike down the canyon.
瓦拉曼以268米高的主瀑布和底部20米深的水池而聞名——這是澳大利亞最高的單滴瀑布。你當(dāng)然可以在底部的池子里游泳,但你必須進行2公里的陡峭徒步旅行才能走下峽谷。
Jim Jim Falls
吉姆吉姆瀑布
This is one of the most impressive waterfalls in the Northern Territory, and one of the main attractions of the country, located within the Kakadu National Park.
這是北部地區(qū)最令人印象深刻的瀑布之一,也是該國的主要景點之一,位于卡卡杜國家公園內(nèi)。
This swimmable waterfall descends from 259 meters above sea level through a single drop into a natural pool in the creek below.

Sightseeing flights can be booked at the local tourist center. During the dry season (May to October), you can even drive to the falls and enjoy camping, hiking and swimming.
這個可游泳的瀑布從海拔259米的地方,通過一個單一的瀑布落入下面小溪中的一個天然水池中。在雨季(12月- 2月),吉姆·吉姆瀑布是最壯觀的,游客可以在附近的雙瀑布鳥瞰最佳景色。觀光航班可以在當(dāng)?shù)芈糜沃行念A(yù)訂。在旱季(5月到10月),你甚至可以開車去瀑布,享受露營、徒步旅行和游泳的樂趣。
Wangi Falls
王吉瀑布
Apart from Kakadu, the neighboring Lichfield National Park is the most famous with the Wangi Falls. The 84-meter waterfall flows down through a series of segmented floors and has lovely rest areas, nice walking trails and safe swimming pools.
除了卡卡杜,鄰近的利奇菲爾德國家公園最有名的是王吉瀑布。這座84米高的瀑布穿過一系列的分段地板,有可愛的休息區(qū)、優(yōu)美的步道和安全的游泳池。

Horizontal Falls
水平瀑布
This beautiful waterfall in Australia is also known as "one of the greatest wonders of the natural world". Kimberley's iconic Horizontal Falls is undoubtedly a standout, and it's no surprise that it is Australia's most photographed waterfall.
這個美麗的瀑布在澳大利亞也被稱為“自然界最偉大的奇跡之一”。金伯利標志性的水平瀑布無疑是突出的,毫不奇怪,它是澳大利亞被拍攝照片最多的瀑布。
The special feature of the Horizontal Falls is that they are located along the coast. As huge tidal waves rush through two narrow canals, they create waterfalls up to 5 m high. Located in Talbot Bay, the waterfalls are formed from the faults amid the McLarty Range with a width of up to 25m. During each tidal change, the direction of Horizontal Falls reverses, creating extensive tidal swirls. Some small areas within the falls are available for swimming but it’s not that safe.
水平瀑布的特點是它們位于海岸上。當(dāng)巨大的潮汐波沖過兩條狹窄的運河時,它們創(chuàng)造了高達5米的瀑布。瀑布位于塔爾博特灣,由寬達25米的麥克拉蒂山脈中的斷層形成。在每次潮汐變化期間,水平瀑布的方向發(fā)生逆轉(zhuǎn),形成廣泛的潮汐漩渦。瀑布內(nèi)的一些小區(qū)域可以游泳,但并不安全。
