The Lost World Epic!! 7 Hours

Waitomo-Sunbeams


This is Waitomo’s ultimate adventure and it is dramatic! The day starts with a 100 meters abseil (330ft) – the world’s longest commercial caving abseil – for some fifteen odd minutes, to get you into the Lost World – and that is just the beginning! In the company of an experienced guide, you will descend for about 15 minutes and admire the beauty of this iconic cavern.

Once down, you embark on a journey back to the surface through the most incredible cave system. Heading upstream you follow a challenging underground river by whatever means – climbing ropes, swimming, wading, passing through vaults the size of cathedrals, up waterfalls and stalactites, squeezing through tight gaps and jumping into black pools!

Be Warned: this is not a simple cave tour. This is a full on caving experience. You need to be fit and you are going to get very wet, you’ll be in the safe muddy hands of some of New Zealand’s most well trained guides. If you enjoy adventure, exploration and the sense of achievement from having completed something amazing, then The Lost World ‘Epic’ will certainly make your light shine brightly.

Health & Fitness: Participants must be moderately fit e.g. be able to go bush walking or skiing for a day. They should not be heavily overweight or suffer from serious health problems such as heart complaints or significant back complaints.
