Buchan Caves, Limestone cave system in Victoria, Australia
The Buchan Caves consist of extensive underground chambers with limestone formations, including stalactites, stalagmites, and calcite-rimmed pools throughout the 400-meter network.
The caves formed over 400 million years through underground river systems carving pathways in the ancient limestone bedrock of the Gippsland region.
The Krauatungalung people of the Gunaikurnai nation maintain strong connections to this sacred site, which holds substantial Aboriginal cultural significance.
Visitors must purchase tickets 24 hours in advance for guided tours of Royal Cave or Fairy Cave, with tours operating daily except on Christmas Day.
The cave system maintains a constant temperature of 17 degrees Celsius throughout the year, providing natural air conditioning in the Victorian wilderness.
