"Great authentic glow worm grotto. Gravelled but wet and a little muddy track for access. Track goes through native bush into an area with high rock walls covered with vegetation and glow worms. Parking on roadside only and glow worms are about 200 meters from the road. Child friendly, bring a torch."
"What a beautiful adventure in the night to go see this special sight. The walk up wasn't too bad... make sure you're wearing good shoes though! It was truly a magical experience being up there with the glow worms. We took the kids with us as well... and although they were scared of the dark, they were blown away by these little glowing creatures that they called 'the stars of the forest'. if i get the opportunity, I'll definitely do this again when I'm next in Dunedin."
"There are several places to see glow worms in caves and other places. It is surprising to go just outside of Denedin, New Zealand for a short hike to see them after dark. There's not a parking lot for the hike. The trail has gravel. Go straight. Watch for the cliffs on the left and the waterfall on the right. The glow worms will be brightest after the last light of sunset is gone. Don't shine your light at them. Enjoy."
"A good sized waterfall in the city. A 15 min walk that can be slippery and muddy in places, with a few wet rocks to climb over to stand at the foot of the waterfall. Quite picturesque and it's nice that you don't feel like you're in the city. For a little more adventure walking up Nicols Creek to the watefall (via the glow worm track) is quite fun and there are some pretty spots along the way. Kids and dogs love it!"
"The walk to the glow worms is short and relatively easy, it was however quite muddy and wet. The walk to the waterfall was quite challenging, I would recommend using hiking shoes or sturdy sneakers, specially if it's been raining. Bring a torch if you are going at dusk. Very beautiful and peaceful"
