Located within the World Heritage listed Wollemi National Park, the Glow Worm Tunnel area offers magnificent views of pagoda rock formations, extensive flora and a wide array of native wildlife including glow worms, kangaroos and wallabies. The walk into the tunnel follows a disused railway line, which once descended into the Wolgan Valley, and was used to transport oil shale.
The highlight of a trip to the tunnel is the thousands of Glow Worms visible in the darkness of the tunnel. A red light is required for the tunnel as this is the only safe light for Glow Worms, but please keep the light away from the Glow Worms and only to ensure safe entry and exit of the tunnel. However, if you don’t have access to a red light, the handrail through the tunnel will assist you to enter and access without the need for a light. Allow your eyes 5 – 10 minutes to adjust to the darkness and watch the brilliant show of Glow Worms on the roof and walls of the tunnel.
