Wellington Caves

Cathedral cave was very cool and Lachie was an amazing guide! He told of lots of informative facts and was engaging throughout. Would recommend making an effort to see this if you're in the region!

Didn’t stay at the camp ground, we did the cathedral cave tour with Skye, who was fantastic. she guided us through efficiently with ease without being rushed and with good humour. The caves are not far out of Wellington township (maybe 7 -10 mins drive, too far to walk, no uber reception either). They were a comfortable temp not cold, actually just refreshing since it was 36 above ground. Definitely worth a visit, we enjoyed the fossils and unusual rock formations of this old seabed and a quick visit to the Japanese gardens on leaving.

We took our grand kids here for 2 full days and stayed at the caravan park here. The kids age from 5-10. We booked 1 cave and the discovery add on for 1 day and the second cave and fissil walk for the second day. The kids had an absolute ball. They swam, rode their bikes and generally had a ball between tours. Never once asking for devices. The knowledge of Paul and Westy combined as our guides was incredible and hilarious. So much to learn and explore. We loved every second of our stay here ❤️

We did not stay at the caravan park but took a day trip and booked the Gaden and Cathedral Cave tours as well as the Discovery Lab experience. First up was the Discovery Lab with Beck who was wonderful. She was great entertainment for kids and adults and a wealth of knowledge which was great to have before the tours so we knew a little bit more about what we were looking at. Overall this experience was great. It would be super nice if the kids were able to take a souvenir home from this but overall it was thoroughly enjoyed. Next we completed the Gaden Cave tour with Skye which was fascinating! So many textures and colours. The stairs were a little slippery after the recent rain, but handrails and lighting meant we all made it down and up without incident. Skye did a great job reassuring my daughter who was a little worried. Within minutes she was enjoying the caves and had settled right in. We then had a short break and grabbed some yummy snacks at the cafe. Lastly, we ended our day with a tour of Carhrdral Cave which was incredible. Nick was our guide and he was very knowledgeable and made sure we all had a chance to see everything. Hopefully the mine reopens for us to come back and see something different next time!!

Participated with 2 kids aged 11 and 9 the Cathedral tour and the fossil discovery lab. Bec was great at engaging the kids in the fossil lab. The Cathedral tour walk is nice and easy compared to say the Jenolan Caves near the Blue Mountains, however not as pretty. High recommend to book before you go as the spaces are limited. Note: Didn’t stay in the rooms so didn’t rate it

Lovely clean tidy place, Westy was our tour guide he was so good at his job, very informative with a life time of knowledge. The caves were amazing really worth having a look.

Here for cave tour, did the Cathedral cave. Our guide was fantastic with great people skills. Found all the staff to be friendly and very happy to answer any questions.

Was the only person on the cathedral cave tour with guides Rebecca and westy had a great time they were both friendly and knowledgeable and kindly answered my continuous questions and listened too my boring story of cave adventures cheers guys

As authentic as it comes, this is a natural part of Australian history. The caves are situated outside of Wellington, NSW. The caves are amazing in that they have been well preserved and a steady stream of families come from near and far to walk down the caves and hear the information the young lad shares with the tourist. This is an ideal spot for families. There is a picnic area before the entrance to the caves and there is a well looked after fenced off area for native animals and birds. There is a well facilitated caravan park beside the caves. Parking for cars and caravans is not a problem.

We did both caves and the phosphate mine in the afternoon. It was very hot outside but the caves were cool and cathedral cave is just plain spectacular. Leave it until last. Both ladies who took us through the caves had excellent knowledge and a pretty good sense of humour too! We hadn't been here for around 40years and were very pleasantly surprised at how easy the walk from the shop and the tours were. There is no booking just roll up and take your chances when it is school holidays as it is very popular. It is the best thing to do on a hot day.
