Descend into the cave on Grotto Mountain. This 4km long limestone wonder was created by huge quantities of water from extinct glaciers. Highly trained, internationally experienced guides lead you through twisting passageways - etched over hundreds of thousands of years - to large chambers, mineral formations, animal bones and fossils.
Tours are physically challenging but no experience is necessary. Participants should be reasonably fit, i.e. Those who hike, bike, raft, snowshoe or ski will enjoy this adventure. Tours go all year, rain or shine.
We advise our clients to bring a snack bar, water bottle
and disposable camera with flash and to wear light hiking
shoes and warm but not bulky clothes.
