The 33rd ASF Conference – “Caving in the Moonlight”

Caving in the Moonlight will combine a thrilling caving experience and magical, nights under the stars, with the newest scientific discoveries in Australian speleology. The 33rd ASF Conference will be held in Buchan, Victoria, a town in East Gippsland near The Snowy River National Park from the 12th January 2025 to the 19th January 2025. There will be some caving dates before the event which will be made public in January 2024 to give people more than enough time to book accommodation.
This conference will host presentations on exploration, conservation, science and much more, mixed in with adventure-filled days of caving, guided cave tours and a chance to explore the natural beauty of the area. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced caver, this is an opportunity not to be missed. Join us for an adventure that you won’t soon forget!
