Main image

Lady Alice Falls is a waterfall in New Zealand’s Southland Region, set within a mountainous, largely undeveloped landscape. The falls are part of the region’s network of rivers and streams feeding valley systems and fiords.

Access commonly requires travel on unsealed roads, tracks or by boat, and the site is visited by hikers, nature enthusiasts and those exploring the wider Fiordland and Southland wildernesses.

The falls lie within the broader Southland environment and are typical of the region’s steep, forested terrain and high-rainfall river systems.

  • Access: The falls are located in a remote, mountainous part of New Zealand's Southland and are most easily visited as part of multi-day tramping routes or by water access where applicable.
