  An amazing place, Borenore Creek has cut a giant arch cave through a limestone hill (which is full of marine fossils) before plunging underground and cutting a huge overhang cave a little further on.
  
  This used to be a poorly maintained area, full of blackberries. It now boasts a large well maintained picnic area at the bottom of a moderately steep 2wd access track. A secure bridge spans the creek and there are useful interpretive sign in place.
  
  There are a couple of paths through the first set of caves to the arch - or you can hike to the top of the arch (a great place to find small marine fossils in the eroding limestone.
  
  The ‘Verandah’ Cave is some distance downstream. There is a long overhang cave along the creek at this point as well as a number of number of deeper very narrow crawl caves following the underground course of the creek.

  Great place to explore and have a picnic! Make sure to bring a bright light for the cave.

  We did a short walk around the cave. There was an route to go in the cave as well but proper shoes & lights may be required.

  A 15 minute drive from town then 1km down an unsealed road that is in good condition. There's two walks. We did the 150m one. I was surprised at how big the caves are. There's another walk that is 7km return but we did not have time. Well worth a look if you're passing.
