Glowworm Tunnel and Dry Canyon Walk

Discover one of the most magical natural experiences in the Blue Mountains on our Glowworm Tunnel and Dry Canyon Walk. This unforgettable adventure takes you deep into Wollemi National Park, combining the wonder of glowworms with the beauty of ancient sandstone canyons.

Begin your journey inside the Glowworm Tunnel, an almost 400-metre-long passage once used for rail transport and now transformed into a spectacular natural light show. As your eyes adjust to the darkness, thousands of tiny glowworms illuminate the tunnel walls like the Milky Way. Using our provided red-light headlamps, you'll move quietly through the tunnel without disturbing these delicate creatures while learning about their unique biology from your expert biologist guide.

After this mesmerising encounter, continue on to the Dry Canyon, a breathtaking slot canyon shaped over millions of years. This easy and accessible walk takes you between towering sandstone walls draped in moss, tree ferns, and filtered sunlight — a peaceful contrast to the tunnel's mysterious darkness.

To complete the experience, enjoy a gourmet picnic lunch among lush ferns in the heart of Wollemi National Park. With a small group and knowledgeable guide, you'll enjoy an intimate and immersive day discovering two of the region's most extraordinary natural wonders.
