Highlights
The entrance to Ngilgi Cave begins with a breathtaking journey through time above ground at the Ancient Lands Experience, an accessible pathway that winds through stunning Yallingup bushland, where a series of interactive installations brings the creation of this remarkable place to life. As you wander at your own pace through the Ancient Lands Experience, you’ll learn about cultural connections to the land, the local flora and fauna, and the formation of the pristine caves beneath the Leeuwin-Naturaliste limestone ridge in the South West corner of Australia. The path leads you to the cave entrance, where you can descend to discover the majestic stalactites, stalagmites, helictites, and vividly coloured shawls that adorn Ngilgi Cave’s chambers. Knowledgeable guides are positioned at key points throughout the experience to provide insights, answer questions, and share stories.

5Great family adventure
Greay experience. Little walk and discoveries. Then a great cave! With a tunnel!! Afterward a bunch of interactive things and a playground. Loved it for the kids
5Worth the step count
Great experience, family loved it, quite expansive area, with lots of steps and a few moderately tight spaces but not too difficult (a number of seniors on the tour). Very informative staff inside the cave and lots of amazing caverns to behold. About 1.5hrs to complete tour including interpretive above ground walk. Steps to the surface are mildly challenging but well worth it.
3A lot of steps. Although...
A lot of steps. Although most steps were well marked some of the last steps were not marked with light paint and in the dark cave it was daunting
5Amazing Cave!
Very cool experience. I highly recommend. Even though it's self-guided, all the staff were fantastic and keenly provided extra information. Lots of great cultural and scientific information too. Great to do on a hot day as the Caves are pretty cool.
5Great cave to explore at your own pace
This really did take the hour and half we were told to expect. This was the best cave out of all that we visited, as you could go at your own pace, and take your time taking pictures and exploring yourself.

The caves were so nice and there was a slide my kids went down, I would recommend going to this cave unless you are claustrophobic.

About Busselton
Busselton is a seaside town on Geographe Bay in Western Australia, known for its very long timber jetty and as a gateway to Margaret River.
Busselton lies on the sheltered, shallow water of Geographe Bay in the south-west corner of Western Australia, south of Perth. Its landmark is the Busselton Jetty, almost two kilometres long and one of the longest timber-piled jetties in the world. A small train runs along it, and at the far end an underwater observatory looks onto corals, sponges and fish that have settled on the piles.
