Cave Walk
to the Waterfall
The Cave Walk is a guided, express walk through the cave to the waterfall in a large group format, featuring a basic overview about the cave with recorded audio. Group size will vary based on date and time of visit.
All admission is timed-entry for a specific date and time.
Discover the hidden beauty inside Lookout Mountain! Descend 260 feet by glass-front elevator into the mountain and explore the cavern trail to the tallest cave waterfall open to the public in the United States. Learn the story behind the accidental discovery of the cavern, see stunning rock formations, and experience the thundering waterfall and lightshow!
The Cave Walk is a 1-mile round-trip walk with some uneven pathways and 36 steps. Guests should be comfortable walking and standing for up to 90 minutes and keeping pace with the group. The length of the Cave Walk experience is typically 1 hour and 20 minutes, depending on date and time of visit.
For cave adventures offering more in-depth details, a slower-pace, extended time at the waterfall and a smaller number of participants, please read about Lantern Tours, Gentle Walking Tours and History Tours.
