Inside Lake Cave, a tranquil lake mirrors the delicate crystal formations suspended above. It’s a magical experience and a dazzling visual display of some of nature’s finest work.
Descend a staircase through an ancient sinkhole known as a doline and into a sunken forest to reach this magnificent cave, which features dripping formations and a beautifully reflective underground lake.
One-hour guided tours take you into a pristine chamber beneath the karri forest. Your guide uses lighting to highlight various features within the cave while sharing interesting facts and stories.
You will witness the rare ‘suspended table’ formation, a one-of-a-kind structure that hovers above a reflective lake. This cave is the region’s most active ‘dripping’ cave, where droplets fall from delicate stalactites, creating ripples in the lake.
One hour fully-guided tour of the stunning Lake Cave.
During the guided tour you'll see delicate crystal straws and stalactites reflected in the water; droplets of the last year’s rainfall hanging from the tips are a sign that the formations are growing. This is the most 'actively dripping' cave in the southwest, and the only cave on the Leeuwin-Naturaliste Ridge that has a permanent lake. As you walk through the cave your guide will describe how the uniquely beautiful features of the cave have formed over millennia. When seated at the back of the cave, you'll witness the changing vistas of the cave as the guide illuminates the cave’s incredible formations. Once back above ground, admire the views from the Lake Cave Deck, a spectacular viewing platform in the treetops. The deck is built from beautiful local timbers and features incredible glass portholes with views through to the cavern below. There is an interpretative centre onsite, designed to help you learn about the formation and history of caves within the region, throughout Australia and around the world.
