Pool of Siloam and Lyrebird Dell, Leura

Pool of Siloam

The Pool of Siloam is a wonderful waterhole and waterfall on Gordon Creek. The Lyrebird Dell walking track offers Aboriginal heritage, waterfalls, caves with birdwatching and picnicking.

At Lyrebird Dell there is a sandstone cave that provides shelter for a lovely picnic area. There is also a waterfall next to the cave. The cave was used as an Aboriginal shelter at least 12,000 years ago.
Follow the signs and return back to the Gordon Falls Reserve.

This waterfall is surrounded by moss and a fern-filled gully with sandstone cliffs around the edges. There is a sandstone overhang next to the waterfall. The shallow sandy pool is a lovely cool place, a great spot to stop for a snack. The track crosses the creek using a bridge in front of the waterfall.

The pool derives its name from the Pool of Siloam (Birkhat Hashiloah – Hebrew) in the City of David and in the Bible is where Jesus sends a man to heal him of his blindness.

Gordon Falls Reserve has electric BBQ’s, toilets, children’s play equipment, and picnic tables. There are a number of artificial cave shelters, with picnic tables inside. A great spot to enjoy a snack.
