Please note that parking is usually free.

Inform the driver of your destination - they will drop you off at the nearest stop to Moray Falls. From there, it's about a 20-minute walk down a narrow lane towards the falls. Be prepared for some rough terrain. Ensure to check the bus schedule for the return trip.
