    Tips

    Hiking

    Sunshine Cave is a moderately challenging cave to explore, with rough paths and low ceilings. The cave gets its name from two collapsed roof sections that let in sunlight. Travel with a light anyway, that sunshine doesn't reach all the dark corners!

    Check in with rangers at the Visitor Center for a free permit before entering any of the caves in the park, and always follow their rules for caving safely and softly.
