Reviews of Hoffmans Pool

V. A.

An awesome swimming spot, very relaxing and has at least 3 different heights where you can jump off from into the water. The water has some good shallow areas for the smaller kids and is plenty deep enough for the cliff jumping experience. Plenty of rocks to play with for the kids to build or make a splash with. Downside is the low life idiots that left their rubbish behind, plastic drinking bottles that we picked up and removed, only to see they did the same at the carpark. "Clean up after yourselves if you go people, don't be a d*ckhead". ** Jan 2025 Went there again this week. Still awesome and another jump off point is not too far down road. I great day to swim or soak in the water or maybe jump off the rocks. A must see.

Easy walk to the pool ! Decent size and big enough to swim in

T. S.

Absolutely stunning place. Clear clean water

A. L.

Lovely transquil pool. The road signs are not straightforward, and network weak, not easy to spot from GPS. But water is super cold! I took a dip after hiking Pinnacles. Refreshing.

A. P.

Awesome spot for swimming, does have deep parts so watch the children but fun for all ages. Take jandals for the pebbles and round rocks before you get to water

S. M.

Great swimming spot. Water was warm and refreshing.. Pebbles on the bottom. No changing area nearby.

R. P.

No changing both as advised on walking trail map. But great for the whole family. Note a bit rocky and steep steps for those with walking difficulties.

M. S.

Great place for a cool off, fairly close to the car park and big enough for it to be busy yet quiet.

Love this place, would recommend. Its so peaceful and beautiful 😍

D. P.

Amazing jump spot into a swimming hole but always crowded and often lots of litter.

O.

Beautiful clear fresh water pool. Easy access from the road. Good parking. No bathroom available though. Getting to the site means driving along gravel road for a bit but it's worth it.

C.

Very good but quite cold

M. H.

Perfecto... Place good for swimming

S. R.

Best cliffs to jump off. Big deep pool.

M. A.

Sandflies and poo (lots of visitors but no toilets and some people just ‘go’ anyway). If you want to jump off the cliff into the river then this is the spot, if you just want a dip in the river then find a quieter spot.

S. L.

Perfect place to cool down after a long day's hike after the pinnacles. No need to do a 30min walk, it's 3 minute walk from the top car park. We were the only ones there!

M. T.

Just a few minutes off the road, an amazing river with a super deep swimming hole. Jump from the cliffs and try to find the bottom, or play in the shallows with your little ones. Best on a hot day, the water is chilly!

K. M.

The nature time, but go in the off seasons to have the pool for yourself

W. F.

Amazing little pool for a swim!

S. L.

Great pools to bomb and enjoy the fresh water. Dogs are allowed in this area, so dogs can swim in the water too.

T. S.

You can reach the pools good with the car. Just 5 Minute from the car park. The river there is beautyful you can swim, relax or jump in the pool.

j. F.

Water is very cold always but feel fresh taking dip in between the lush green ranges.. Was awesome

D. S.

Great place for a dip. Usually warmer than other parts of the river If your up for a jump there is a nice rock ledge

S. J. M. F. O.

Not too busy , water was crisp and clean .nice little sand bank for younger kids to play before getting too deep

(Translated) A little hidden. You can drive past it very quickly. However, you should not miss this place. There are even a few parking spaces, so do not be shy. After walking down a small path, you come to the Hoffmans pool. Picturesque landscapes and a perfect section for swimming opens up. Here you can calmly take 30 minutes and forget a little time. (Original) Ein wenig versteckt. Man kann sehr schnell dran vorbei fahren. Allerdings sollte man sich diesen Ort nicht entgehen lassen. Es gibt sogar einige Parkplätze, also keine falsche Scheu. Nachdem man einen kleinen Weg herunter gegangen ist, kommt man an den Hoffmans Pool. Malerische Landschaften und ein perfekter Abschnitt zum Baden eröffnet sich einem. Hier kann man sich ruhig mal 30 Minuten nehmen und ein wenig Die Zeit vergessen.
