Trowutta Caves State Reserve

Trowutta Caves State Reserve is a protected karst reserve near Trowutta in the Circular Head municipality of north-west Tasmania. It conserves an extensive limestone cave system, sinkholes and the prominent Trowutta Arch, a large natural limestone arch. Set within wet eucalypt forest and temperate rainforest, the reserve is largely undeveloped and managed for conservation and geoconservation, valued for its geological features and remote natural setting.

Visitors can expect a remote, forested karst landscape with dense temperate rainforest, limestone outcrops, sinkholes and cave entrances. The main visitor focus is the short walking track to Trowutta Arch, a large tunnel-like limestone arch with a sinkhole. The reserve is undeveloped with no visitor centre or guided tours. Caves are wild and undeveloped, accessible only to experienced cavers with appropriate equipment. The setting is quiet and natural, with opportunities for short walks, sightseeing and photography.
