Your Visit to Lake Cave Margaret River

Nestled beneath a rich forest canopy, Lake Cave is a subterranean wonder that promises a memorable exploration of Western Australia’s unique underground landscapes. On this guided tour, you'll descend into a dramatic sinkhole surrounded by towering karri trees, with a specially constructed deck offering sweeping views of the cavern’s entryway.

Descend into the Sunken Forest

Your adventure begins with a journey down a series of stairways and boardwalks amidst the treetops, leading you to the base of a spectacular sinkhole. As you reach the entrance, Lake Cave reveals itself with an overwhelming sense of tranquillity, framed by lush vegetation and filtered sunlight.

Discover the Enchanting Underground Lake

Inside, you’ll find a serene lake that reflects the stunning formations above, creating a mirror-like surface. The cave’s most iconic sight is the ‘Suspended Table’—a massive calcite decoration that appears to float just above the water, a phenomenon unique to Lake Cave in Australia. The constant dripping of water from stalactites into the lake adds a calming soundtrack while you explore.

Marvel at Crystal and Limestone Formations

Throughout your guided experience, you’ll encounter dramatic natural features including shimmering crystals, delicate ‘straw’ stalactites and thick columns of stalagmites. These formations have been slowly sculpted over countless centuries, and the cave remains active with water shaping its interior daily. Your guide will share fascinating insights into the geology, history and ongoing formation of the cave.

Panoramic Views from the Lake Cave Deck

Before entering and after your tour, be sure to visit the Lake Cave Deck. Elevated among the treetops, this platform grants breathtaking vistas of the forested landscape and the sunken cave mouth below, making it the perfect spot for memorable photos or a few quiet moments surrounded by nature.

Small Group Guided Experience

Your group will be led by an experienced local guide, ensuring an informative and safe visit. You will learn about indigenous stories related to the site, the science behind the creation of the cave and its ecological significance. All your questions about cave formation, the suspended formations and the region’s geology will be answered along the way.
