Barron Falls is a result of plate tectonics at their best. Eastern part of Australia was separated from the current mainland, sinking under the sea, while leaving an escarpment on the mainland. This is the escarpment and it has been eroding since that time. Left are cascades which formed by river flowing over the edge of the escarpment.
