Short walk of about 400mtrs to cave entrance. Cave walk itself is quite short but does have a couple of narrow points and some very interesting views

Quite good as elderly tourists we noticed that the defibrillator was down at the kiosk would take a marathon runner to get from the cave to the kiosk and back to the cave too late took more than three minutes patient dead. With planning one could be placed at the cave each day
A bucket list item!

Definitely put the Cutta Cutta Caves on your list to visit! The cave formations were beautiful... if you used your imagination, you could see shapes of many animals... even Elvis. There is a metal walkway along the cave, with dim lighting... so we weren't worried about tripping. There were two tight areas to squeeze through... a bigger person may have issues. Our guide was very friendly and informative. Please take heed of the warning on the website, you must wear enclosed shoes.
Very enjoyable 😉

Booking in the day before doesn't disappoint to see the cave & being approximately 30km south of Katherine NT, the Guide was very nice & informative outside before the cave tour & when we went in, the walkway in the cave was steel mess with a tight spot about half way in, lighting could be better but had some good formations to see!
