About
Quick facts: An underground river flows through a vast network of over 200 caves in this natural wonder. Visitors can explore chambers stretching up to 3.75 miles beneath the surface, revealing impressive stalactites and stalagmites.
Highlights: The cave system includes one of the longest navigable navigable subterranean rivers in the Americas, spanning roughly 13 miles. Flash floods inside these caves sculpt fascinating formations and create dramatic waterfalls, a spectacle few places offer.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable hiking shoes with good grip for slippery cave pathways.
- Bring a compact flashlight for additional lighting inside darker sections.
- Snap photos near the natural skylight openings for stunning light contrasts.
- Avoid weekends if you prefer a less crowded tour to enjoy the caves more peacefully.
