Noisy Ritual

Ladies Bath Falls
Mount Buffalo National Park
What’s more ‘strong, independent’ woman than challenging yourself to a hike and then cooling off in a luxurious waterfall named “Ladies Bath Falls?!” Nothing, that’s what.
Located just over 4 hours out of Melbourne, Ladies Bath Falls became a popular detour for women in the late 1890’s on their voyage up to Mount Buffalo. Grab the girls, some runners and enjoy this eucalypt-lined water-hole. Even bring a picnic and spend the day!

Located on the Yarra River, this pop-up pontoon bar celebrates all things beautiful, including fruit-fueled cocktails, lobster pasta and gelato from the one and only, Pidapipo Gelateria. Get fancy, ladies! You deserve it!
