Guided Tours of Arkansas’ only Lakeside Cavern

1 Hour Daily Cavern Tour

Friendly expert guides will lead visitors on the easy, wide open pathway along the edges of the stream that flows throughout the cavern. The path on this breathtaking adventure wanders throughout huge rooms while the guide explains the incredible “domes” and other formations located in the first half-mile of this huge cavern. Our resident bats and salamanders have also been known to make appearances during the tour.  After the tour enjoy our pristine walking trails and scenic lake views as you make your way back to our gift shop.  The cavern stays at a constant 58 degrees year-round, is stroller accessible, and pet friendly making it the perfect adventure for the entire family. The Last tour leaves one hour before closing.

After Hours Bat Tour

Memorial Day thru Labor Day Only

Experience a tour unlike any other. This specialty tour takes place during the time of year when our bats are most active. Our flying friends are often seen emerging from War Eagle Cavern during Summer evenings. To increase the likelihood of bat sightings, electric lights in the cavern will be turned off, and guests will be given special old-style lanterns. Our friendly guides will also share stories and history not heard on any other tour.  Available the 2nd and 4th Saturday each month from Memorial Day until Labor Day.

PRICING:

Adults: $30 + tax | Ages 13 and up only.

There is a minimum of 4 participants required for each After Hours Bat Tour. Tour times with less than 4 tickets sold by the day of the tour will be subject to cancellation. Bat sightings are not guaranteed.
