Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

How to locate this walk? Well I parked outside of the Little Red DuckCafe, which is across the road from the old milkbar... I crossed the road towards the milkbar and walked in the direction of the Noojee Pub. You will see right next door to the row of stores an information board about things to do in Noojee. Directly behind the sign is the sign to tell you that you are at the start of the Water Wheel Walk. You head down some steps, they are not steep and follow the path. The walk is incredibly scenic, but quite overgrown and you may have to tackle a little bit of blackberry bush.
It's not a difficult walk, but it's not one you can make if you have any mobility issues, or are pushing a pram- the walk includes steps and narrow areas. The walk will only take you ten minutes to the water wheel and back.
Very little history is known about the waterwheel... they know one existed, but the one currently at the location was not the original. The waterwheel is said to have existed in 1925 for nefarious purposes.
So it's an unusual walk... very pretty, very short and very sketchy.

The short walk has seen better days. Steps are in poor state, track overgrown, trees down.Water wheel itself is somewhat interesting, although it is in dire need of restoration. We walked back along the road.

This is only a short from the town of Noojee to the back of the pub. You can actually see the old waterwheel from the deck of the Hotel. There is an information sign to tell you of the history also.

Very pleasant easy walk (some wide steps) from the center of town. 120 meter walk and a 10 minute return trip. The track is mostly shaded and follows the river bank. The walk takes you to a large metal water wheel. There is an information sign at the waterwheel explaining its history. If you don't want to walk back along the track ... this walk ends just near the Noojee Hotel ... another historic landmark.

Great little walk on the trestle bridge. Kids enjoyed it. The walk up to the bridge is a bit steep but quite doable. Good views from the top

It isn't really that exciting and is very easy to get to. It doesn't move anymore and seems to be just rusting away now.

Beautiful views of the waterfall and the extremely enticingly peaceful walk along the bush tracks. Would recommend this to anyone who loves the nature and bushwalking.
