Princess Margaret Rose Cave
A cave on the Victorian side beside the Glenelg River, with dense white stalactites and helictites. Visits are by guided tour.
Princess Margaret Rose Cave lies within Lower Glenelg National Park in Victoria, about 40 minutes' drive from Mount Gambier. The cave was discovered in 1936 and named after Princess Margaret of the United Kingdom. Its stalagmites, flowstone curtains and spiral helictites are snow-white and densely packed, and it is considered one of the most beautiful caves in the region. Visits must be taken on a guided tour (about 45 minutes). Outside is the Glenelg River gorge, where you can go canoeing or walk along the river. There are campsites nearby.
