This is a great family trip and not to be missed. After a short video, you take the trolley down to the entrance of the main cave. You wander past massive formations on a paved walkway to the bottom of a giant sinkhole. On your return to the entrance you overlook a portion of the Camuy River that flows underground. Arrive early.
