Pelverata Falls is a 114-metre-high (374 ft) waterfall in the Snug Tiers, Southern Tasmania. In winter and spring the falls are a spectacular sight and have heaps of water coming over them, however, in summer the falls slows to a trickle and sometimes even dries up completely. The track to Pelverata Falls takes approximately 2 hours, and also allows you to see Slippery Falls from across the gorge near Pelverata Falls.[1]

In 1976, a teenager slipped and fell near the falls.[2]
