11.5 km (4 hours) via Pinnacle Rock and an elevation gain of 432m
The hike is good for bird watching and game viewing. It follows the Emerald Stream, past indigenous forest to a spectacular waterfall with pools suitable for swimming on the way back form the cave.
The cave is a real cave with great views into the valley. It's worth staying overnight and making a weekend out of your hike.
