Niagara Cave is celebrating 100 years since discovery! We invite you to join us on a walk through the cave by lantern light.

- New! Glowing Cave Experience
Take the classic mile-long hike through Niagara Cave and experience a section of the cave (approximately 15 minutes) with the lights turned off. We provide black lights for this section of the hour-long tour where you will be surrounded by cave formations that are naturally fluorescent and phosphorescent which means they light up and glow under ultraviolet light! This unforgettable addition to the classic tour is available on select evenings.
- Ages 7+

Open 7 days a week from May 1st - October 27th.

We just loved the cave and our guide. Totally fascinating. The number of steps they highlight is not too bad, as they are spread out. Guide was informative and patient- allowing us enough time to take in this amazing place. Also loved the selection of stone artifacts and items in the gift shop.

There were a lot of interesting features in this cave (fossils, echo chamber, waterfall, spring, etc) ! It had a little bit of everything. I think my favorite was the purple phosphorus deposits and how it absorbed the UV light & glowed. It was fine for our 8 year old and I carried the 4 almost 5 year old down a couple of the staircases just so we were not going too slow but the 4 year old did a lot of it herself also.

We had such a fun time and would do it again. Our guide was very nice and patient with our four year old. He even offered him a flashlight which was the highlight for him. The stairs make for a nice little workout at the end.

Really interesting activity that I high recommend. Our tour guide was excellent. As mentioned, there are a number of stairs to climb, especially when leaving the cave at the end of the tour.

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff! Our tour guys definitely knew her stuff and very personable! The cave was great, great walking paths! If we go again, we'll make more of a day with mini golf and gem panning! Definitely a must see!!!
