Cutta Cutta Caves Nature Park

TIME : 2016/2/18 14:23:33

Turn your back on the searing sun and dip down 15m below terra firma into this mazelike limestone cave system. The 1499-hectare Cutta Cutta Caves Nature Park has a unique ecology and you’ll be sharing the space with brown tree snakes, plus the endangered ghost bats and orange horseshoe bats that they feed on. Cutta Cutta is a Jawoyn name meaning many stars; it was taboo for Aboriginal people to enter the cave, which they believed was where the stars were kept during the day. Admission by tour only.
