About this experience

Look out for the 50,000-year-old zygomaturus jawbone, a relic of a large wombat-like herbivore, still embedded in the cave wall. Wander along the gently sloping boardwalk and stairs through chambers adorned with stalactites, stalagmites, and a stream that flows during late winter and early spring.

On existing the cave, you'll step into a tranquil forest setting where a peaceful walk past towering marri and karri trees completes the experience. Step back in time, uncover stories preserved in stone, and enjoy a visit that blends education, exploration, and natural wonder.
