Information

Closest to town. Caves include: Donna, Trezkinn, Bauhinia and Pompeii plus Royal Arch Cave. Short walks to the top of the limestone outcrops with views back over the town to the smelter chimney.

Visitors can explore Donna, Trezkinn and Royal Arch caves on ranger-guided cave tours, which run daily except Christmas Day. Tickets must be purchased in advance from Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service staff based at The Hub in the Chillagoe township. These three caves can only be accessed via a ranger-guided tour.

Other caves can be accessed via self-guided cave tours.

The Parks website has full details of what to expect at each cave including walk time, distance and challenges that may be present.
