There has been a big rainfall event here these last few days, with a whopping 275mm of rain falling on the hills of the Mangawhitikau!!!

We checked on the glowworms this morning and they had a wet night, most glowworms survived which is a great relief. And all the tracks/boats are in good, but slightly muddy conditions!

It normally takes days for the water to recede and then can tours resume. So hopefully Wednesday or Thursday we will be back into operation. Fingers crossed the forecast rain over the next few days doesn’t eventuate into much 🤞

The glowworm experience in our cave is truly Spellbinding! We spend about 45 minutes in our glowworm cave and 20 minutes floating in our raft with no lights but the glowworms. This gives your eyes the chance to adjust properly to the light, allowing you to enjoy all the glowworms have to offer.

We get to see the glowworms close up, learn about what makes them so special, and then travel by their light, the power of thousands of glowworms lighting our way.

Te Ana o Te Atua, "The Cave of the Spirit" hides away bones of ancient animals that once roamed around Waitomo. More recent bones are found here too, along with stunning cave formations - stalagmites, stalactites and the remains of a long-abandoned riverbed. "Tomo" (sinkholes) are open to the sky, putting on a natural light show that makes this cave unique.
