Two people have been rescued from a cave in New South Wales following a ten hour-long ideal, 9News reports.
Emergency services were called to the Jenolan Caves in the Blue Mountains at 7.20pm Saturday night (local time).
Police said a man and a woman had become trapped after being separated from the group they were exploring the caves with.
The rescue took ten hours and required a large number of resources including police, the State Emergency Service and ambulance crews.
9News reported emergency crews were waiting outside the caves while specialists drilled into the rocks to carve out a path for the pair.
They made their way out of the caves, situated about 100km west of Sydney, early this morning (local time).
The pair are believed to be from Canberra and were assessed by paramedics, but had no reports of injuries.
