It has been recently claimed that dark matter could be in the form of aBose-Einstein condensate (BEC) in order to explain the dynamics at largedistances from the galactic center [Boehmer, Harko, JCAP {\bf 0706}, 025(2007)]. In this paper we explore the possibility of wormhole formation ingalactic halos due to the dark matter BEC. In particular we have found a newwormhole solution supported by BEC dark matter using the expressions for thedensity profile of the BEC and rotation velocity along with the Einstein fieldequations to calculate the wormhole red shift function as well as the shapefunction. To this end, we show that for a specific choose of the centraldensity of the condensates our wormhole solution satisfies the flare ourcondition. Furthermore we check the null, weak, and strong condition at thewormhole throat with a radius $r_0$, and shown that in general the energycondition are violated by some arbitrary quantity at the wormhole throat. Usingthe volume integral quantifier, and choosing reasonable values of parameters wehave calculate the amount of BEC exotic matter near the wormhole throat, suchthat the wormhole extends form $r_0$ to a a cut off radius situated at $`a'$.Moreover we have introduced a Kerr-like metric for a rotating BEC wormhole tostudy the effect of BEC dark matter on the Lense-Thirring precessionfrequencies. Namely, we have shown that the obtained precession frequencies liewithin a range of typical quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs).
