This tree serves as a marker to the Peace Cave located right behind it. This is one of several caves in the area that are fun to explore. Bring your camera and flashlight and get ready for an adventure. Peace Cave is probably the largest of the caves allowing for standing room in some areas. Some of the caves are so small I would only recommend braving them to the adventurers who have no fear of tight, dark spaces or bats. Pets are allowed and visitors can enjoy taking their pooch for a walk on the trails.
