Historical Howes Caverns
Ride Captain: Deb Heim
($30.00 per person)
Howe Caverns is one of those places that upon entering you feel like you have been transported to another world.
Every tour of Howe Caverns begins in an elevator with a 156 ft descent below the earth’s surface.
From there your journey will begin in Lester Howe’s above ground study where Howe himself will regale you with the story of how he discovered our great cave. You will travel through the enormous main cavern, pass through impressive galleries and walk under huge boulders which precariously hang overhead. You will walk alongside the River Styx stopping to marvel at the wonders of Titan’s Temple and The Giant Formation on your way to the Lake of Venus where you will enjoy a short serene boat ride. Your tour will conclude with a stop at the romantic Bridal Altar and an exciting twisting, turning walk through the Winding Way.
