Wombeyan Caves
Wombeyan Caves
is one of our favourite strategic retreats.
Only 45 minutes from Sydney, but a thousand miles from care!
|
From Bankstown, track out
via Choppers South.
|
|
|
|
It's always fun to cross three live runways!
Here's a DC-3 touching down below us.

|
|
Track west to Lake Burragorang...
|
|
|
Then turn south.
|
|
Keep between the cliffs
and you can't get lost!
|
|
|
Coming up on our right hand side is the Tonali River, which winds
its way up to
Yerranderie
|
|
On our left hand side is Bonnum Pic... incredible!
|
|
Track southwest along the Wollondilly River then hop over the mountain to the rejoin it...
|
|
|
It should look something like this.
|
|
|
Aha, it's Wombeyan Caves!

|
Now to get in there...
|
|
|
Got to keep over those poplars!
|
|
|
The campers usually enjoy the fun.
(As long as you didn't blow over their tents...)
|
|
|
After some strategic reflection, it's back to Bankstown!
|
|
As usual, IFR all the way!
|
|
|
Turn right at 2RN and
left at the sewerage ponds...
|
|
|
... and aim for KFC.
|
|
Don't forget to dodge the light aircraft.
(Zoom in: he's airborne)
|
|
All in all, a great destination! We highly recommend it!
