Solomon Caves, Devils Gullet & Alum Cliffs

Really need to try and get on to eastern daylight savings time!! Finally left our accommodation around midday, went and had a walk along the river and then headed west to a small town called Deloraine. By the time we walked around and had a late lunch it was about 3pm. We went to Solomon Caves, unfortunately we missed the last tour of the day so we took the walk around the caves. What an amazing place, the forest is like something you would see in a “beginning of time” movie, all ferns, moss and ancient looking trees. We spent about an hour trekking through. Then we headed to Devils Gullet, access through a gravel track which was fun! What an amazing place, photos just don’t do it justice. That was a bit of a trek up to get there from the carpark but well worth it. By this time it was about 6:30/7pm but we really wanted to see Alum Cliffs. Again worth the side trip and the trek through the forest to the magnificent view. We were actually walking across a ridge – about 4-6 metres wide, with huge drops on either side.
