On the right track, the location I'm on has a name.

Fairly close really, 5 or 6 km from there as the crow flies.

Correct. Probably not the most commonly photographed view of that location.

Right park but this is a fair distance from Wattamolla. I'm not near the Coast track.

Getting closer, I passed close to Engadine Creek a couple of hours later on my return loop.
This is one of several features around a well known spot near a track junction.

Not familiar with Karloo Falls, but I did visit Karloo Pool on my way here.
I'm above a named waterfall. These cascades informally have the same name as those and the waterway.
There is more than one 'loo around here, not just at the campsite.

Close enough. This is Uloola Cascades, maybe ~200m upstream of Uloola Falls on Uloola Brook.

Haha! Got through thanks to very limited competitive field. I’ll take it!

Name this river where these idyllic swimming holes cascade upon one another.

I'll go with Bungonia Creek although you do not mention the state/territory.

Yeah, sorry. It’s in NSW but not bungonia creek. This river lends it name to region in which it runs through.

Probably not as notable as the 3 guesses above. But this quite achiever does contribute its fair share to a major catchment.

I think the "region" association narrows it down to wollondilly, Shoalhaven, hunter, snowy, brogo and maybe.... ettrema? Although that's technically a creek (could say the same for kanangra and wollemi if that's the case?)?
