Cave Country |
Marakoopa
(from the aboriginal word meaning
'handsome'), a wet cave
featuring two underground streams and
amazing display of glow worms, is
located 8 km west from Mole Creek.
King Solomon
Cave, a smaller, dry cave (yet still
spectacular) is situated a further 7 km west and is
better suited to those who are less
energetic, due to its fewer steps. Please go to
Mole Creek Tourist Caves or call the ranger for current prices and
tour times
