Ruakuri Cave

Spent half the day underground as we visited two of the caves in the Waitomo Caves area. First the more well known Glowworm caves with the underground boat trip to see the glowworms. Then down the man made spiral entry to the Ruakuri Cave. There have been trips down here for over a hundred years but the original entrance is now off limits so you now enter down this amazing spiral walkway. Also enables wheelchair users to visit the cave system. Extra shows our guide Joel demonstrating the translucency of the limestone formation known as shawls.
