Wiri Lava Cave

Wiri lava cave is Auckland's longest known lava cave at around 290 metres. It is part of Matukutūruru volcano in the Auckland volcanic field. Because it features rare lava stalactites, the cave has garnered international renown, and access is restricted, with entry requiring a permit.
