Plodda Falls Carpark
 

Plodda falls has a small carpark set amongst trees just adjacent to the forest track that goes to Cougie. From here, there are two circular, waymarked walks which go to Plodda falls - the Tweedmouth Walk and the shorter Falls Walk. You can also use connecting forest roads to make longer walks through different parts of the forest and to other areas.
