FAQ about the project

The Ruakuri Cave is located 2 hours south of Auckland, 1 hour south of Hamilton, and 2 hours west of Rotorua.
The underground walkway of Ruakuri Cave can be accessed by wheelchair
Camera can be carried inside the cave for shooting
Q: Can I bring the baby in together?
A: Sure, children under 3 years old can enter for free, but the environment inside the cave is dark, quiet, and has a loud echo. Children are prone to crying and disturbing other tourists, so we do not recommend bringing babies inside.
