Starting from the car park on Gun Road, Trowutta Caves State Reserve, this walk takes you to the Trowutta Arch. Enjoy a short and easy walk through the scenic temperate rainforest to a fascinating geological formation known as the Trowutta Arch. The walk follows a wide, mostly flat gravel path with a wooden border, winding through a lovely mossy forest filled with towering eucalypts, huge fern trees and fungi-covered logs. After only 500 metres, you'll reach the Trowutta Arch, formed from the remnants of an ancient collapsed cave, one of many in the region. The tall rock arch perfectly frames an exposed sinkhole filled with green algae-covered water, offering excellent photographic opportunities. As you go through the arch, the lush green environment gives way to tall jagged limestone walls. Take your time admiring the scenery before making your way back. The sinkhole is not fenced, so caution with children is advised. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
