Borenore Caves
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Borenore Caves are located in the Borenore Karst Conservation Reserve, 17 kilometres (11 mi) west of Orange, New South Wales, Australia, on the Escort Way (which is on the route from Orange to Forbes).
Access is self-guided and suitable for casual visitors. Entry to the reserve is free.
There are over 40 caves, including:
- Arch Cave
- Tunnel Cave
- Verandah Cave
The Tunnel Cave is closed from May to October each year so that a colony of Common Bent Wing Bats, which hibernate there, are left undisturbed.
