Jenolan Caves

Traditionally referred to as 'Binoomea' meaning Dark places in local Aboriginal dialects, Jenolan Caves is a mystic marvel of the Blue Mountains. Hidden in the mountains are worlds time seems to have forgotten.

As you drive up the winding bending path, you wouldn't even think that inside these mountains Sparkling treasures wait to be discovered.

If you're heading up to Jenolan Caves in Winter - dress warm, but wear layers as the caves are actually very warm and you will want to remove a few layers before entering.

Also, I would recommend to bring water and snacks. There is a take-away shop, but it is very pricey and you'll be dining on fried foods and white bread sandwiches...

There are many different caves to view and many different activities - There is something for everyone and for every level of fitness. You can even do Adventure caving - if that is something that you're into. We didnt have enough time to look into this, but it seemed to be very cool indeed.

Prices can be found here for tours - http://www.jenolancaves.org.au/the-caves/tour-prices/

I would recommend planning which tour you would like to go on and its starting time, before you get there. As they tours can sell out fast or you can simply turn up late and miss the start time.

I love Jenolan Caves, there is some much energy here and so must history hidden in the crystal formations.

Put Jenolan Caves on you 'Must visit' list if you're heading to the Blue Mountains - you will love everysecond of if!
