Capricorn Caves, near Rockhampton

  
 

The multi award-wining ecotourism attraction, the Capricorn Caves are geologically unique ‘above-ground’ tropical caves located on the east coast route of Central Queensland.

Easy walking guided tours reveal huge chambers, rare ferns saved from extinction and seasonally, little bats. The perfect acoustics of the Cathedral Chamber make it ideal for weddings and underground opera. Additional options include a pioneering candlelit walk and a geo tour incorporating a palaeontology dig site. In December the Summer Solstice light phenomenon attracts thousands of visitors. Caves and facilities are wheelchair accessible and there are also wild caving options for the adventurous. Visitors can stay overnight in four-star cabins or a caravan park. www.capricorncaves.com.au
