Short rainforest loop to a natural rock arch where Cave Creek pours through the roof of a cave. Come at dusk or after dark and the cave ceiling is covered in glow-worms. It sits on the Springbrook plateau, a winding drive up from the Gold Coast.

Good to know

  • Go just after sunset for the glow-worms
  • Use a red-light torch and keep voices low in the cave
  • Walk the loop clockwise to avoid the longest staircases
