Underworld Exploration: Being underground draws on senses that you may not have experienced before. Imagine a maze of ancient limestone tunnels, subterranean rivers, and caverns richly draped with exotic mineral deposits.

Aborigines first named the area Binnomea or Dark Places. By the 1830s European settlers started to explore the caves. Over 40kms of multi-level passageways have now been discovered beneath its mantle of eucalypt forest.

This special and fragile landscape has been created over millions of years and its importance reflected by World Heritage Listing. Formation has occurred through a complex relationship between water, rock, atmosphere and the lifeforms that inhabit the environment. The caves await your exploration.

Underworld Guided Tours: Your enthusiastic and specially trained guide will describe the processes of nature that formed this natural wonder, as you explore chambers illuminated to highlight astonishing features. Over 3kms of formed paths have been developed to provide a choice of cave tour options and themes to suit all ages and levels of fitness.

Tours, with durations from 1 to 2 hours, operate every day (including Christmas Day) from 10.00am, last tour departs at 5.00pm. Additional tours operate during school holidays, Saturday evenings and by appointment. Please check for specific dates and tour times.

Visiting these areas will enhance your understanding of the development of the ancient Jenolan Caves and its special environment. Adventure caving is exciting and educational. Tours led by qualified guides operate daily with specialist equipment provided, bookings are essential.
