Adventure Cave Tour
Date: Oct. 26, 2024
Time: 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

Register (Admission Fee: $11.00)

Are you looking for a fun and physical interpretive tour of a wild cave? Our Adventure Caving includes Carolyn's Caverns and Mothers Cave, with lots of crawling and exploring. Learn how caves are formed, some geological history of this area and about animals that use the caves. Challenge yourself to try all the (sometimes small) tunnels and ‘The Squeeze’!

For the Adventure Caving Tour participants will first tour the 4 caves of Carolyn’s Caverns but will be expected to use crawl tunnels to go between each. We will then enter Mother’s Cave which is all crawling, sometimes on your belly and sometimes on your hands and knees. Tunnels can be tight and muddy, and this tour is quite physical, but loads of fun!

Participants need to bring a flashlight and must wear closed-toe footwear (no sandals or flip flops). To be comfortable a sweatshirt and long pants is recommended as the cave are around 55?F. This also provides protection from rocks.  The tour lasts for 2-3 hours depending on the group size, maximum 30 people. Minimum age is 10 years old and accompanied by an adult. 

Pre-registration required, $11 per person
