The Jenolan Caves have been known since at least the 1860's. How they got to them I have no idea although apparently there was a bridle path by the 1880's out of Katoomba. To drive there is basically a one lane road hugging the mountains (getting to be an expert at these - at least this one had a guard rail!) complete with blind hairpin turns. Not for the faint of heart is how they advertise it. They are still discovering adjacent caves to this day.
The one with the stairs cut into the rock is the Cathedral Cave and was one of the first discovered. It is very large and hosts concerts, weddings and other events. Would be interested to see the bride cover the many narrow steps to get into it!
