Alligator Creek flows through Bowling Green Bay National Park in a series of cascades, deep pools and waterfalls.
The track to Alligator Falls meanders roughly parallel to the creek through the open forest to Hidden Valley. Discarded machinery is a rusty reminder of a failed farming enterprise. Across the creek the valley narrows, with Mount Elliot and Saddle Mountain framing the landscape.
The final section of the walk is through a rocky vine thicket from which the track suddenly emerges near the falls. Tropical rainforest grows towards the summit of Mount Elliot, the highest peak in the park. Open forests and woodlands, riverine vegetation, mangroves and coastal vegetation also grow in the park.
