Jenolan Caves offer extensive guided tours of Australia’s largest and most spectacular limestone caves. In 2006, scientists confirmed that Jenolan Caves are the world’s oldest caves yet discovered – 340 million years old. There are also plenty of bushwalks within the Jenolan Karst Conservation Reserve, spot wildlife such as Lyrebirds, Platypus, and rare Brush-tailed Rock-wallabies. Cave tours with varying levels of difficulty and length are available, so if you are looking for adventure and a challenge or just a slow and steady journey, there is a tour for you! On arrival, you can head straight to the cave’s café for a hot coffee, or explore first then dine later at Chisolm’s restaurant in the historic Jenolan Caves House built-in 1897.
