Experiences in wild (undeveloped) caves since 1989, with caving club leaders, at Mole Creek Karst National Park (on the edge of the Wilderness World Heritage Area).Handy to Cradle Mountain, Launceston and Devonport. Club caving began here in 1946 (Australia’s first caving club, the Tasmanian Caverneering Club). Discoveries are still being made. Some 450 caves are currently known, attracting club cavers from interstate and overseas. Mountain catchments feed streams that sink into the ground and which are important for the karst ecology, endemic "living fossils" cave fauna and local water supplies. Forest cover sustains active biogeochemical processes of cave mineralisation. While “show” caves are easy to access, specialised equipment and leadership is necessary to explore “wild” caves safely and with minimal impact. Each cave involves different grades of difficulty to explore and different opportunities for photography, adventure, geomorphology and fauna interpretation.This licensed, accredited Tasmanian tourism business supports WildCare, Tasmanian Land Conservancy and Australian Bush Heritage.Half day trips for the tourist market. Includes overalls, helmets and lights hire plus lunch (full day on request).Special interest group programs include an option to abseil a wide 24 m deep sinkhole into the cave, with excellent spectator viewing.

I went to Trowunna with my husband and nearly 3 month old. As it’s an open grass park it is suitable for a pram (and we brought ours) and had no issue navigating one around the park (small hills and rocks). As we went in the morning in winter it was still dewy so obviously our pram wheels got massively dirty from grass, dirt and roo poo but was easily washed off ( if this is an issue for you suggest leaving the stroller in the car). We got there at 9.30am and did the 11am tour. As we were there so early and it was winter we basically had the entire park to itself. This was great as we could do the park at our own pace. There was also a lot of kangaroos in the morning and the pack of kangaroos appeared to have disappeared into the bush after the 11am tour. So if you are keen to feed lots of kangaroos then suggest getting to the park at least at 10.30am (note kangaroo feed is extra charge - $3). Highly recommend attending the tour which was about 30 minutes to 45 minutes. The guide was very informative and included a talk and wombat walk / pats and a tassie devil talk / pat and feeding. I know years ago they use to be able to hold a wombat but they don’t seem to do this anymore. If you are squimish, suggest looking away during the tassie devil feeding as this gets quite bloody as they feed a group a wallaby (also skin is in tact after feeding and is shown to the group).

Fantastic experience, we arrived at the ranger station and advised by ranger as to various tours available and degree of difficulty (climbing stairs etc) were able to book a tour for King Solomans cave as well. Our guide was fantastic, he was so passionate about his work and the caves providing with lots of relevant and interesting information.

A fantastic experience by our tour guide Aaron, he was so informative, his enthusiasm was like a breath of fresh air, he was like the Dr. David Bellamy of caves, and his knowledge was enlightening to say the least, thank you Aaron for such a wonderful tour. Irene & Charles
