Niagra Cave

I'm still working through blogging our trip to Maine this past summer, but today I'm taking a break to discuss a more recent fall trip to south eastern Minnesota. While on this trip we visited Niagra Cave. There are very few caves I've visited, with the very first cave visit to my memory taking place just a couple of years ago when we visited Mystery Cave, also in south eastern Minnesota.

Niagra cave is another great cave tour experience I highly recommend. Prices to visit the cave are reasonable for a cave as developed as this. Adults are $17 and kids under 12 are $11. The cave tour takes about an hour and is a 1/2 mile hike in and back (1 mile total). There are a few stairs, but it is a relatively easy walk. This cave has a very cool waterfall and several very cool cave features that are simply amazing! They probably do this at all cave tours everywhere, but it always amazes me when they turn off all of the lights and you can see, pun intended, how dark it becomes!!!

If you are in the south eastern Minnesota area and like caves, Niagra cave is a great opportunity! In the summer months they also have a small mini-golf course that kids will enjoy.
