History


Description

The caves main claim to fame is that it is a level concrete pathway throughout. The cave was a natural shelter for the native Americans with evidence of a habitation site in the Rotunda. The underground trout stream is cross by a firm steel bridge as the two underground rivers, crossed by similar bridges. Speleothems abound and the tour ends at an underground waterfall.
