Baloon Cave

THIS WALK IS NOW CLOSED. DUE TO THE FIRE DESTRUCTION IN 2018 AND THE CULTURAL SIGNICANCE OF THE SITE, IT IS UNLIKELY TO EVER BE REOPENED.

Located within a gap in Clematis Ridge, Baloon Cave is part of an entry point to the gorge used by Aboriginal people for thousands of years. This short walk among the fan palms and cycads leads to a small sandstone overhang featuring a fine example of stencilled Aboriginal rock art.

Easy and wheel chair accessable yet still gives an introduction to the geology of the gorge.

We walked this track as part of the walk to Big Bend with our children. These side tracks are only short and definitely worth taking.
