Wombeyan Caves

27th – 30th December, 2009.
We spent that past few days at Wombeyan Caves exploring the world of stalictites, staligmites, shawls and flowstones.




We went on two guided tours through the Wollondilly and Junction Caves with our guide Jonny Lewis. We also went through the self-guided tour of Fig Tree Cave.



Jonny suggested that we do the Mares Forest Creek Bushwalk and upon arrival to walk upstream up and over rocks to other beautiful swimming holes. We took his advice and were rewarded with an experience we will neer forget... swimming through a river boarded each side by steep cliffs revealing many new caves.











We spoke to some other locals who leant us their torch to go through the Tinted Cave, which although was small it was exciting to be doing it on our own.
This morning Rodney and I went for a bushwalk to Wombeyan Falls, we watched the sun rise over a valley and saw much wildlife including a male and female peacock.
Now on our way to Canberra....
