This is Not your regular Glow Worm Tunnel Tour! Their tour leaves from the spectacular Wolgan Valley, rather than the busy Newnes Plateau Discovery Trail via Lithgow. Instead of a driving along a 30 kilometre track of corrugations and washouts, navigating through convoys of 4WD's and dirt bikes, and walking along a crowded one kilometre trail from a carpark, they will be taking an awe inspiring five hour bushwalk through ancient rock pagodas, towering sandstone cliffs and real life Jurassic Park forests (without the dinosaurs of course), until they reach their destination and marvel at the thousands of glow worms that magically appear.

This is a total package - an adventure where you’ll see more, learn more and experience more - and during your journey you’ll have an experienced, knowledgeable local guide, and plenty to drink and eat including espresso coffee, tea or hot chocolate and locally prepared (and oh so delicious) grazing boxes featuring your choice of baked goods, sweets, savouries, and fruits.
