Borenore Caves
A small limestone cave reserve west of Orange, where you can explore arch caves and fossil-bearing rock strata on your own.
The Borenore Caves reserve has several small caves, including Arch Cave and Fox Cave. No guided tour is required. You can enter with a headlamp, and water flows through Arch Cave. The rock layers preserve marine fossils from about 400 million years ago. The reserve has picnic areas and short walking trails, and it is free to visit.
It is about 17 km from Orange. The caves are slippery, so take care.
