Please note: These are wild caves. During the tour, we will encounter uneven, rocky terrain. We rate our Limited Entry Cave Tour as Easy as most of the cave has a flatter, ashy bottom, but also understand that everyone has different ability and comfort levels. If you have questions about the cave's difficulty, it is best to contact us directly!
