| While the Blue Mountains often portrays
Jenolan Caves as one of its own tourist attractions, Jenolan Caves is actually
part of the spectacular Oberon area. Jenolan Caves is however within easy reach
of the Mountains making it ideal for a day trip. Jenolan
Caves are without question, Australia's most impressive limestone caves. The caves
were discovered in 1838 by a convict bushranger. There are nine show caves open
to the public with spectacular lighting, underground rivers and cave formations
that will amaze you.
Tour guides take you through the caves. Some caves
are tougher than others. Jenolan Caves also offer adventure tours, picnic facilities
and bush walking tracks. The drive to Jenolan Caves is also a pleasant experience.
The
natural welcoming of the Grand Arch is unforgettable.The acoustics of the Archway
make carols by candlelight at Christmas a truly magical event! Historic
Jenolan Caves House in itself is a treat to experience. On cold winter days, relax
by a log fire with a hot chocolate while waiting for your cave tour to begin.
If you wish to stay in Caves House, advanced bookings are essential. For
tour times phone Jenolan Caves on (02) 6359 3311.
