For the explorers, head to the Lusk Cave.&nbsp; These are a series of caves that interconnect underground that you can walk through. &nbsp;The water level in the caves depends on the recent rainfall.&nbsp; You will need to bring a bathing suit, water shoes, and a headlamp, and a waterproof bag for your valuables.&nbsp; If you detest cold water, consider bringing a shorty wetsuit.&nbsp; The hike there is lovely and follows the edge of Philippe Lake.&nbsp; 

Details: Park at Parent Beach parking.&nbsp; Access to the caves via trail 50 (about 5km on easy gravel trail).&nbsp; &nbsp;
