Enjoy your experience! ----- Lake Cave is a stunning pristine chamber deep beneath the earth. Inside the cave, a tranquil lake reflects delicate formations that will take your breath away. To put it simply, it's a mirrored wonderland. See the 'Suspended Table', a spectacular crystal decoration weighing several tonnes that hangs from the ceiling, almost touching the waters of the lake. This cave is the most 'actively dripping' cave in the southwest, and it's the only cave on the Leeuwin-Naturaliste Ridge that has a permanent lake. Lake Cave is also the deepest of the show caves on the ridge, and is, without doubt, one of the most beautiful limestone caves in Western Australia. While seated at the back of the chamber, you can enjoy the unique 'underground ambience' of the cave with the sound of these droplets falling to the lake. Your guide will change the feature lighting within the cavern to provide unique views of the cave features and formations. Visitors descend a staircase in time, with access through a spectacular doline (sinkhole), gazing up at the towering karri trees from the floor of the sunken forest before entering the cave. It's a must-do experience. Above ground, admire the views from the Lake Cave Deck; a spectacular viewing platform in the treetops, suspended over the sunken entry to the cave. Don't forget to brush up on your cave knowledge at the interpretive centre, with information about the Leeuwin-Naturaliste caves, as well as fascinating insights into caves all over the world.
