It’s not a long walk though, and in no time you'll be face-to-face with the enormous freestanding limestone Carlotta Arch.From under Carlotta Arch, you can experience a bird’s-eye view of the brilliant Blue Lake. Wander down into the massive Devil’s Coach House cave, and check out Grand Arch before returning to Caves House.Go bird watching for lyrebirds and pretty little rock warblers.
