Lake Cave is a magnificent, pristine chamber located deep beneath the earth's surface. Visitors descend a staircase through a spectacular sinkhole called a doline, gazing up at the towering karri trees from the floor of the sunken forest. Inside the cave a tranquil lake reflects the delicate crystal formations that grow from the cave ceiling. Visitors can marvel at the unique 'Suspended Table' formation, which weighs several tonnes and seems to defy gravity as it hovers above the clear lake water. As the guide changes the lights to focus on unique features within the cave, incredible views and silhouettes are etched in the darkness, leaving visitors in awe. Fully guided tours run daily.

When we were there a young couple had a baby a baby pouch. It is quite warm in the cave my husband was in thirty and shorts. There are a lot of steps to get down to the entrance of the cave but the cave itself is not very long but very spectacular. Enjoy, hope this helps.
Q:

There are a lot of steps down and ok for an active 5 year old who doesn't mind walking. A bit much to carry him up and down I should think. There are benches to sit on at intervals …

There are a lot of steps down and ok for an active 5 year old who doesn't mind walking. A bit much to carry him up and down I should think. There are benches to sit on at intervals down/up. As for in the cave there are more stairs but as you stop and start he could catch his breathe a bit. There was a young boy about 5-6 when I went and he seemed to handle it ok.
Q:
Is the space very confined? I'm referring to as confined as Cu Chi tunnel in Vietnam. A little claustrophobic here.
A:
Definitely no where as confined as the cuchi tunnels. You will be guided in a group of about 20 so there's lots of space to move around
Q:
Must you wear a specific footwear or are sports shoes or sneakers ok?
A:
best to wear shoes with good soles, maybe sneakers
