Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Jenolan Karst Conservation Reserve adventure.
In the bush-clad foothills of the Blue Mountains are more than a dozen natural caves to explore at Jenolan Caves. Venture underground to trek through limestone caverns, follow subterranean rivers, and marvel at hanging stalactites, crystalline rocks, and fossils. Alternatively, spot kangaroos on a bush walk through the Jenolan Reserve, choose an active tour and scramble through cave tunnels by torchlight, or dare to discover the caves after dark. There’s no camping at Jenolan Caves, but campers have options within a 20-minute drive.
Jenolan Caves are open daily year-round, but advance bookings are always advisable, especially on weekends and during NSW school holidays. Peak season is summer (December through February), so book tours at least six weeks in advance. The caves provide a cool retreat from the heat, with underground temperatures maintaining 15°C no matter when you visit.
