We Have Reopened!

Our fantastic cave tours have reopened, at last. Also, Caves House is open for overnight stays, and upstairs in Caves House, magnificent Chisolm's Restaurant is open, along with Jeremiah's Bar. 

DETOUR

The main approach to Jenolan, via Jenolan Caves Road, has not yet been declared safe, so visitors must use Edith Road. The final 3.2 km of Edith Road are steep, very narrow and winding, with several tight hairpin bends – NOT suitable for caravans. However, Edith Road is sealed, and OK for experienced drivers in average-sized cars, campervans or small minibuses. Take it slow, and watch for wildlife crossing the road. 

The Edith Road detour adds approximately 20 km (40 minutes) to your trip.  However, the picturesque route takes you close to the small town of Oberon – a nice place to stop and look around. Also, the longer trip makes an overnight stay at Jenolan a great idea – a chance to really slow down and step back in time.

Due to bushfire and flood damage, we cannot yet reopen our bushwalks, the Nettle Cave, or Devil’s Coach House Cave.

Directions for the Edith Road Detour

On the Great Western Highway, west of Hartley Historic Village, turn into Jenolan Caves Road.  After approximately:

• 25km, turn off your GPS navigator and turn right, onto Duckmaloi Road
• 20km, turn left, onto Titania Road.
• 4km, turn left, onto Edith Road. 
• 20km, arrive at Jenolan Caves.
