This magical cave is a natural time capsule; home to ancient fossil remains of long-extinct giant animals. A fascinating audio tour is available in several languages. Mammoth Cave is a self-guided cave, where visitors explore along the boardwalks and platforms, through the majestic chambers of the cave. This is much more than a cave - it is a complete nature experience.
Mammoth Cave is a natural time capsule, home to the ancient fossil remains of long-extinct Australian Megafauna. As the most easily accessible of all the show caves in the region, Mammoth Cave offers wheelchair access to the first chamber and MP3 audio tours available in English, French, German, Malay, and Mandarin. 

Visitors can explore this outstanding cave system at their own pace and come face-to-face with a 50,000 year old ‘'zygomaturus' jawbone that is embedded in the cave wall! Mammoth Cave is a unique window into the past, with over 10,000 fossils having once accumulated inside the cave. Upon excavating, many of these fossils were found to be remains of Australian Megafauna (giant animals) that became extinct around 46,000 years ago.
 
A visit to Mammoth Cave finishes with a winding walk through a beautiful marri forest. The marri forest is currently regenerating and reinventing itself following recent fires. The trail is lined with new growth and flourishing green foliage climbs the trunks of the towering trees. Mammoth Cave is much more than a cave - it is a complete nature experience.

For your safety and the protection of the recovering forest, please keep to the designated walking trail at all times.

(Wheelchair access to the first chamber - sorry no prams or strollers).

Easy to navigate..lighted up for most parts. Not too many stairs except for the last 160 steps. Take the longer walking trail through the forest. Very good narrations from the audio. Self guided.

An Accessible Cave Experience. Mammoth Cave offers an easy walk with visually appealing formations. The audio guide enhances the visit, just make sure to follow the instructions. The pathway is straightforward, but remember not to touch anything inside except for the handrails. Parking can fill up quickly. Toilets are available, as is a gift shop at the visitor center. The natural walk post-visit is also worth exploring, with both short and long options that loop back to the start.

Gigantic and impressive cave, very well maintained path and easy to walk with some steps. Self guided audio tour provided with your entrance ticket ($24 for adult and $12 for kids) very interesting and informative. After the cave tour, you can also do an outdoor nature walk.

Great self-guilded cave walk. Headsets are given to listen to on your walk. Ticket $24 for an adult. Large cave with lots of fossils found. The chambers are very impressive and massive! Lots of stairs at the end, so wear comfortable shoes and remember a jacket.
