Please be mindful that this is private property. Please note: the road is not accessible to buses and trailers, and only has limited road side parking. Limestone Creek Reserve is sign posted on the right-hand side of the road about 2km before Sixtus Lodge. How to get here: Located in northern Manawatū, just north of Ā piti, on Table Flat Road (gravel road). Take care on the track as the surface is uneven and it can be quite slippery at times. Note: Please help protect the surrounding environment by staying on the track. Once in the caves, limit the use of your torch as it can disrupt the glow worms. Sturdy, supportive shoes which can get wet are essential, and bring a torch if visiting in the evening or at night. The main cave is located about 80m from the bottom of the hill. You'll cross streams along the way, take care not to slip. When entering the track, turn right at the bottom of the stairs which takes you upstream and down into the gully, where you’ll be met by towering walls covered in lush moss, wild ferns and orchids. The full 600m adventure will take you through caves, spectacular gorges and across a running stream. Formed by nature and one of Manawatū’s best hidden gems, these stunning caves are host to glow worms which can be seen during the day, but are best seen at night or on dusk.
