Hiking
The Donahue Sea Caves are a unique natural feature located in Burlington on Lake Champlain. These caves were formed by wave erosion during periods of high lake levels, carving out these geological formations into the limestone cliffs. Accessible only during the winter when the lake freezes, the caves are a popular spot for adventurous visitors who want to explore their icy interior and enjoy a glimpse of the region’s natural history.
