Incredibly photogenic caverns with very good guided tours. One of the highlights of a great park. Variety of tours.

Great experience at the cave. Very cool. I recommend bringing a flashlight and maybe even a black light as well.

We visited this cave in July 2022. This is a very neat cave. It was a burial place for the native Americans many, many decades ago. So when you go in the first part of the cave, you are asked to be quite as a way to show respect for those who were buried there. The formations inside the cave a wonderful. They paved the paths some 50 years ago because there was and is today a place where water gets in the cave. They didn't want to have people walk on muddy ground so they took action. The tour we took was about half a mile long and was done in about 1 hour. We visited many rooms which they gave names to them. Sad to see some people broke some of the formations. Hopefully they can grow again but as we were told, some of the formations took them more than 100 years to be where they are now. Good thing is that there were only a few that were broken. But for the most part, they are all in good shape and care. It was worth the visit to learn its history as well. If you visit the Great Basin National Park, come visit this place.

Super cool! Ranger Nick (from Bozeman woo!) was AMAZING and lovely and just an awesome cave tour guide. Did an amazing job making an already incredible cave super interesting and fun. Thank you for a great experience! Super educational and a dramatic story teller! <3 The caves themselves are pretty easy to navigate, although damaged by the years before the National Park Service got involved. Very very cool! Beautiful features and incredible geological history!
