Abbey Caves is an undeveloped network of three caverns full of glowworms and limestone formations, 6km east of town. Take a torch, strong shoes, a mate for safety and be prepared to get wet. The surrounding reserve is a forest of crazily shaped rock extrusions. Ask at the i-SITE about an information sheet for the caves.
