Waipū Caves Scenic Preserve
Waipū Caves Scenic Preserve is a natural attraction near Waipu in the Northland region of New Zealand's North Island, offering visitors the chance to explore cave formations and glowworms.
Unlike the commercially developed caves at Waitomo, the experience here is more rugged and self-guided, typically taking around an hour to explore. The preserve also serves as a designated camping area managed by the Whangarei District Council.
Camping is permitted in designated areas, though visitors are limited to a maximum of one night in any calendar month. Campers should follow any additional on-site signage for further guidance.
