Description
Archways is free of charge and not associated with the paid tours. Archways is excellent and well worth the drive out there. Park your car and head in for an easy walk into Archways caves. Nothing strenuous and really interesting.
Visitors can explore Donna, Trezkinn and Royal Arch caves on ranger-guided cave tours, which run daily except Christmas Day. Tickets must be purchased in advance from Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service staff based at The Hub in the Chillagoe township.
You can also partake in self-guided cave tours.
The Archways (Grade: easy)
Distance: 220m return. Time: 30mins
This self-guided cave commences at the Mungana Archways car park. Follow the rock-strewn track through deciduous vine thicket as you explore this semi-open cave. Skinks (small lizards) dart across open spaces to find refuge in the rocks. Common crow butterflies flutter in the shade of the rock walls. Torches are required.
Dogs are not permitted.
No camping or overnight parking.
