The Marakoopa and King Solomons Caves are just two of over 300 known caves and sinkholes in the Mole Creek area.
45 minute guided tours of each cave operate 364 days a year and offer a unique glimpse into a magical underground world of lavish colours, rushing water, sparkling crystals, and, at the Marakoopa Cave, a stunning glow worm display that is the largest of any public access cave in Australia.
