More about this image
The Waitomo Caves district is famous for its subterranean phenomena. Beneath the surface of this limestone region is a series of vast cave systems decorated with speleotherms (stalactites and stalagmites) and glow-worms. Some caves are open to the public, others are best left to the experts. Black water rafting is an intriguing way to appreciate the underground splendours of Waitomo – you’ll drift along subterranean streams on your own personal raft. Guided abseiling experiences are also available. Other activities in the area include horse riding, quad biking and jet boating.
Functional facts: Approx. district population 9500, visitor centre, various forms of accommodation, cafés, limited shopping.
