Waitomo Adventures

Local Attractions

The area of the Waitomo caves, situated in the King Country, is also stunning above the ground. This region is rich in Kiwi & Maori culture.

You'll find everything from dramatic limestone outcrops, majestic native forests, rich green farmland, and glowworms en masse in native forest settings. If you like tramping in the great outdoors, you'll love exploring the local rural and bush tracks from your base in Waitomo Village. A couple of these walks are popular even at night. Don't forget to bring a torch!

The award-winning Waitomo Museum of Caves is situated right beside our office. There are many interactive displays and things to learn about glowworms, Kiwi & Maori culture plus the fascinating history of the caving in the Waitomo region.

You'll find many more interesting things to see and do in the Waitomo area, from the famous Kiwi House and Kiwiana displays in nearby Otorohanga to Angora Rabbit Shearing Shows up the road.
